Shelf - Esteem Issues Book Club

Everything looks fine....so why don't I trust any of it? 

Not everything is as it seems… and that’s the problem. 👀 Episode 14 gets complicated.

Out of my genre. In my feelings. Somehow...in space. Episode 13 is a problem.

I left a smart book...for a suspicious man. No regrets!! Be honest you have done that right? Right?! He was charming, attentive and absolutely not to be trusted. Let's get into it!

Out of my genre and still broke my trust. The Intruder had me side-eyeing everyone. Come investigate!

Two writers. An unfinished love story. And emotional damage across two timelines. I step wildly outside my dark-fantasy chaos to investigate The things we leave unfinished by Rebecca Yarros. This book may not have dragons... but the heartbreak is just as dangerous.

Fangs, flirting and wildly questionable life choices. Let's Discuss. Enter Pyscho Shifters by Jasmine Mas.

Fantasy books are a little unhinged... and someone needs t talk about it. Welcome to Shelf Esteem Issues - the podcast where books get interrogated characters get judged, and terrible fictional life choices are analyzed with a healthy amount of sass. Every episode dives into a different book, so you can start anywhere.

Magic misfires, reckless choices and a wizard who weaponizes his trust issues. Step into Uprooted, where the forest isn't the only thing unhinged.

What happens the the quiet girl escapes, the monsters taker her side, and the world realizes too late who she really is? This is Written in Red--and this episode has claws! This is the Finale. Let's close this chapter together!
