Episode 17: Heavy Petting in the Closet

Welcome to episode 17, Nerds!  This week, we are discussing chapters 41-43 of “A Court of Thorns & Roses” by @therealsjmaas.  This episode takes place under the mountain where Tamlin is trying to get busy with Feyre instead of helping her escape. Really, Tamlin?  We’ll also be discussing the power of music and ponder if Amarantha was suffering from prolonged grief disorder. Deb even feels bad for her for a few minutes!  TRIGGER WARNING: Depression, grief and mental illness. Drink up this week's "Our Nerdiest Cocktail", the "Draught of Death".  The recipe can be found at ournerdiestthing.com or instagram.com/ournerdiestthing.  Seriously though, our editor had to work their magic on this episode… this drink was so strong that Deb & Mindy couldn’t keep it together in the end! Drink responsibly, nerds. SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: Have you heard the “Our Nerdiest Thing” season 2 news? We’ll be reading Jennifer L. Armentrout’s “From Blood & Ash!
