Not Another Heroine

Join Katie and Jordan, two friends who discovered similar reading habits and needed more time to talk books out of the office. They break down the best and worst fictional heroines and regularly struggle with pronouncing character names. Each book gets a few episodes, so spoilers beware!

Pick of the Week: An Homage to Holly Black

Not Another Heroine ·

2024/01/17

This week's pick is less of a pick and more just an entire episode dedicated to Holly Black and her 20+ years of "bussin down on fantasy" (and a random sidebar about, no surprise, Draco Malfoy and why morally grey characters are SO much more interesting to read about.)We do however focus (the word used ~very~ generally) on Black's 2002 debut novel, Tithe.https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/46777

Not Another Heroine ·

2024/01/15

Needless to say, we are CONFLICTED about this series. If your only exposure to Tamora Pierce is the Song of the Lioness books, "Wild Magic" is set in the same world and features many of the same characters; HOWEVER, the heroine is 13 years old in Wild Magic and she ends up in a romantic relationship with her mentor/teacher in book 4 ("In the Realms of the Gods"). We get into this for quite a while at the start of the episode, so skip to about 21 minutes in for the actual story.

Pick of the Week: The Hurricane Wars by Thea Guanzon

Not Another Heroine ·

2023/12/27

Katie has a bit of a 180 and decides she does, in fact, enjoy this week's pick, The Hurricane Wars by Thea Guanzon. We also learn that our resident Victorian woman Jordan doesn't care for the political marriage trope - gasp!https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/75668288For similar picks, try:The Bridge Kingdom by Danielle Jensenhttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/53921926-the-bridge-kingdomA Promise of Fire by Amanda Bouchethttps://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/59645282Red Queen by Victoria

2023/12/25

We're done with ACOMAF! We're still mildly confused as to what exactly is going on with this ending but at least Feyre overcomes her depression, fear of caves, and winnowing in all of three pages...just in time to save Rhys, Velaris, and all of Prythian.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/50659468-a-court-of-mist-and-furyWant to sneak a look at upcoming content?

Pick of the Week: About Fanfiction

Not Another Heroine ·

2023/12/20

Katie and Jordan do something a little different in this week's pick: a (pretty long) discussion on fanfiction. You may have heard of some recent author's having new works published that started off as fanfics, like The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood, or more recently, The Hurricane Wars by Thea Guanzon. Well, Katie and Jordan have some thoughts - and a recommendation if you're looking for something good to read (for free!!) this holiday season: The Politician's Wife by pir8fancier (who has a

Pick of the Week: Only a Monster by Vanessa Len

Not Another Heroine ·

2023/12/13

Katie needed something of a pallete cleanser after our attempted monster romance a while ago, and settled on "Only a Monster" by Vanessa Len. While Jordan isn't convinced (read: at all), we hope readers might find a fun, light YA fantasy romance right up their alley.https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/58210340And if you're looking for same same, but different:"A Deadly Education" by Naomi Novikhttps://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/50548197"The Hunger Games" series by Suzanne

Pick of the Week: Whispering Wood by Sharon Shinn

Not Another Heroine ·

2023/12/06

Jordan's pick this week is a slow burn romance featuring a fiery, rule-breaking smuggler a la Peaky Blinders. Sign me UPPPPP. We discuss everything about Sharon Shinn's new release, Whispering Wood (and weirdly, a lot about green bean casserole).https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/190013474-whispering-woodIf you're looking for something similar, but a little different, try:The "Circle of Magic" series by Tamora Piercehttps://www.goodreads.com/series/43551-circle-of-magicOr, "The Shadow and Bone

Pick of the Week: The Prison Healer by Lynette Noni

Not Another Heroine ·

2023/11/29

In this week's pick, Katie gets heated about The Prison Healer by Lynette Noni (and not in the good way). But she finished it and that deserves a round of applause, because despite 50k+ reviews and 4.2 star rating on GoodReads, she (intensely) did not enjoy this.https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/53968496For similar (but better) books:An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahirhttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/27774758-an-ember-in-the-ashesA Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J.

2023/11/22

It's Rob's pick of the week and it's not a book or a movie but a play. We present "The Lion in Winter" by James Goldman, a dysfunctional family drama just in time for Thanksgiving (with a side of our own family drama on the proper toppings for sweet potatoes.)https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/279660
