Ep 29 We Read HOCKEY ROMANCE Books So You Don’t Have To!

Send us Fan MailSo… we did it… for science. During one of our unpopular opinion episodes, you guys asked: “Why does hockey romance exist?” And because neither of us had read one, we did our best to answer, but knew we had to soldier on and do more research. So here we are. Ashley read the viral bestseller Icebreaker by Hannah Grace, and Liz read Consider Me, the popular first installment in the Playing for Keeps series by Becka Mack. Then we compared notes. And things got roast-y.Do we “get” hockey romance now? Do we have crushes on fictional hockey players? Will we read more of this micro-trope in the future? Listen on to find out. And as usual, we’ve got a faves and fails covering everything from heat stroke and horror movie sets to Halloween decor, with a fitting Canadian and monster-adjacent smash or pass.Don't be shy, subscribe!
