    With excitement in the air, we’re joined by Summer and Becky from Summer Reading Creations as we look at the discovery of an unknown Bram Stoker short story, "Gibbet Hill". Alongside this thrilling discovery, we can't ignore the buzz around Illumicrate's special edition of "House of Flame and Shadow" and the enchanting advent calendars sparking holiday joy. This takes us into a tangent as we talk about ACoTaR, Crescent City, andThrone of Glass.

    Our journey through the mythical and modern tales continues with a hearty discussion on Abigail Owen's latest book, weaving Greek mythology into a contemporary narrative. The nuances of character relationships, especially involving the mysterious Hades, lead to engaging debates about loyalty and destiny. We draw comparisons to popular works like Neon Gods and Lore Olympus, shedding light on the fresh twists Owen brings to her storytelling. Ratings and reviews reveal a spectrum of opinions, with some praising the book's imaginative retelling while others eagerly anticipate the sequel for more answers.

    Adding a whimsical touch to our literary adventure, Summer and Becky introduce their charming take on the "blind date with a book" concept. This delightful surprise reading experience adds a dash of mystery and joy to any book lover's collection. As we wrap up, we invite you to connect with our vibrant podcast community across social media, dive into our book club on the Fable app, and join us on a literary journey full of surprises, discussions, and the magic that only books can bring.
