Booklings: Recent Episodes
Jilliano Angelo Hilay Romano
We're Nikki and Jian - the Booklings. Listen to us wage war on each other's taste in books, while (somewhat) maintaining our sibling bond. Whether it's the latest Sarah J. Maass book, Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, or a classic Stephen King horror book, we're here to argue!

Hey readers (listeners)!
We are back with another episode of Booklings. Today, my sister attacks one of Booktok's favorite books - The Atlas Six. While she hated it, I actually loved reading Olivie Blake's foray into dark academia. Strap in and listen to her rage about useless powers, Gossip Girl's finale, and the pain of dark academia.

Hey everyone! In this episode, the Booklings discuss Colleen Hoover's bestselling novel, It Ends With Us. It has been praised for its unflinching depiction of domestic abuse, and how it affects everyone involved. While Nikki has a much more favorable view of the book, Jian thinks it's one of the worst books he's read in 2022. Listen as we discuss the awful names, the weird letters to Ellen Degeneres, and of course, whether or not it's worth reading for you.
Welcome back to Booklings! In this episode, we discuss Sherrilyn Kenyon's Seize the Night, and why you should stab your future husband. We also discuss the entirety of her Dark Hunter series, and go into significant detail about why it's among the best of the paranormal romance genre.

In this episode, we discuss The Unrequited by Saffron A. Kent, and whether or not it depicts an unrequited love, or if it's completely toxic, and shouldn't be read by anyone. Obviously, this is a polarizing topic for the Booklings, but that's exactly how we like it.
In Part 2 of our first episode about Jennifer L. Armentrout's Storm & Fury, we sum up our final thoughts on the plot and the characters, as well as discuss the philosophy behind love triangles, whether or not my sister (Nikki) has enough relationship experience, and if Zayne knows the meaning of love.
In the first part of our debut episode, we discuss Jennifer L. Armentrout's Storm & Fury. We discuss everything from the logic behind a name like Misha for an American gargoyle, the inclusivity of our heroine's genetic disorder, and of course, stupid teen romance.
