    2025/06/16
    ACOFAE Podcast Presents: Bury our Bones in the Midnight Soil: "Hunger." In an ACOFAE first, Laura Marie went into this fantastic book completely blind and ended up not taking notes during either read through! An ACOFAE first! So what happened in this book that sucked Laura Marie in so completely that by the time she came up for air, over 60 pages had passed? If you read the back cover it's obvious, but Laura Marie did not so you can imagine the shock. Join Jessica Marie as she guides listeners and Laura Marie through a book that they could not stop gushing about. Marie, Alice, and Lottie take an adventure through time that is as complex as the need for human connection and as simple as hunger. The hunger is unending.

    ACOFAE Podcast Presents: Coming of Age: Seven Little Kisses by Samanth Ferrand What are your favorite "Coming of Age" stories? Are they filled with angst? Awkwardness? Was it set in middle school? Before? After? Does it make you wince to recall the most painful parts? These are some of the questions that live within the genre of Coming of Age and their answers will stay with you. Using Samantha Ferrand's Seven Little Kisses to explore the genre a bit more, Laura Marie and Jessica Marie are thrown back into youthfulness and situations that were thought to be individual experiences, but turned out to be part of the universal canon of girlhood. "Boys only hurt you because they like you."

    2025/06/02
    ACOFAE Podcast Presents: Cursebound: "Why are we letting people go!?" ACOFAE is back in the world of Fae and Elves with Cursebound, the sequel to Faebound which brought us to Yeeran and Lettel and their world of animals, curses, war, and politics. Yeeran is determined to get the word out about the hidden and cursed Fae and decides that telling her ex is the best way to do that. Surprising absolutely no one, it goes terribly and both Yeeran and the reader are thrust into political situation that is boiling over on all fronts. In the Fae world the internal fighting between groups is coming to a head, and outside of the Fae world the War has not stopped or slowed. but gained traction. Ending on a cliff hanger that Laura Marie did NOT see coming, Cursebound sets the stage for a dramatic conclusion coming in book 3.

    204. Shield of Sparrows: "You are a bird."
    2025/05/26
    ACOFAE Podcast Presents: Shield of Sparrows: "You are a bird." It feels like it's been a while since Laura Marie and Jessica Marie were both delighted with a new release and while it probably hasn't been that long, finding the joy seemed harder than ever until ACOFAE picked up Shield of Sparrows. A big claim for sure, but how often does the journey of self discovery, self acceptance, and MONSTERS come into play together in a Romantasy? Monsters is a new addition to the ACOFAE lexicon and Laura Marie and Jessica Marie are along for the ride with Odessa, The Guardian, The Prince, and some questionable ladies' maids that may or may not have set Laura Marie off. Join ACOFAE as they dive into the fastest paced ending in a while where people are dying, monsters are flying, and maybe the real monsters -the kings and courts, are lying.

    203. Lilo and Stitch '02: "Ohana means Family."
    2025/05/19
    ACOFAE Podcast Presents: Lilo and Stitch '02: " 'O'hana' means 'Family'." How old were you when you first watched Lilo and Stitch? Did you cry? Have you seen it as an adult? You will cry. ACOFAE dives into the animated Lilo and Stitch and it's an episode that is filled with tears. Mainly Jessica Marie's, but it's a tough watch for Laura Marie too. Lilo is lonely and asks for the best angel there is, and Stitch is an experimental alien from another galaxy that is bent on destruction. Throw in CPS and an older sister and you've got waterworks for adults and laughter for children. A story that's about family that throws around quotes that hit you in the gut, Lilo and Stitch is an animated classic no matter the age. "It's small and broken but it's mine."

    2025/05/12
    ACOFAE Podcast Presents: 202. The Mummy: "The triangle, like a pyramid, is the strongest shape." ACOFAE dips into the archives and is slyly setting up some things in the future by covering the 1999 classic action-adventure movie, The Mummy. A movie that served as the awakening for an entire generation, Brenden Fraser and Rachel Weisz knew what they were doing as Laura Marie and Jessica Marie watch them fall in love while exploring the sands of Egypt. Heartwarming and extremely funny, The Mummy holds up all these years later with wit and charm. And the hottest cast since Pirates of the Caribbean. "Why. Choose."

    201. Roswell '99: "Men don't yearn anymore."
    2025/04/28
    Acofae Podcast Presents: Roswell '99: "Men don't yearn anymore." Surprising probably no one, Laura Marie is the catalyst behind covering the 1999 WB hit Roswell. While watching her comfort show, Laura Marie was struck with the feeling that Jessica Marie needed to see these aliens yearn. And yearn they do. A classically teen high school drama with big feelings and science fiction, Laura Marie watched this when it was on air and has a lot to say about it. Jessica Marie is kicking her feet giggling as we learn where the aliens came from (up north) and we learn exactly who is in this stellar 90's cast- you'll be surprised. A show with an unskippable intro, star trek alumni, and chemistry that is off the charts, Roswell is a top tier cult classic was relevant then and still is now.
