Everyone! We are almost done with Wheel of Time. After over a year, Laura and I will be taking a minute to prepare for a brand new miniseries. But before that, we want to take a pause and highlight one Indie Author for the month of June. So we will be voting in what weContinue reading “Indie Intermission Inventory”

Hannah’s January Reads
Hannah read nine books this January. She really enjoyed all of them. She read a few fantasy novels, a few general fiction, and even was able to get to one nonfiction novel (never her strong suit). So without further ado, here are the books Hannah read. Follow her on Instagram at brews.and.books for her overallContinue reading “Hannah’s January Reads”
Laura’s January Reads
Pony by R.J. Palacio ★★★★☆ A sweet (and surprisingly deep), middle-grade book about a boy and his companion, a ghost named Mittenwool, who set out to rescue the boy’s father with help from a pale-faced pony that seems to have some “mystic qualities” of its own. I really enjoyed this one. I picked it upContinue reading “Laura’s January Reads”
OWWR Pod February She Wrote Recommendations
Ben from Literature and Lofi is doing a month of reading books with people who use she/her pronouns! In honor of that, Laura and Hannah prepared a few authors that are worth reading! Ryka Aoki: Why not start the month off right and kill two birds with one stone. Read Ryka Aoki’s works. Hannah andContinue reading “OWWR Pod February She Wrote Recommendations”
Cozy Reads for a Winter’s Night
It is officially winter so now it is time to fire up the stove, grab that hot chocolate (spiked or unspiked), climb under the covers, and settle in for a long winter’s night with a good book. Wintertime is a strange time to pick books for. We aren’t really seasonal book readers, we are moodContinue reading “Cozy Reads for a Winter’s Night”
Before They Are Hanged – Joe Abercrombie
Hannah read the second novel in the Third Law Trilogy. This book took each of the main people of the novel to the north, south, and edge of the world. Abercrombie still moves forward with his great ability to take a character’s trope and reinforce certain aspects while inverting all expectations in ways you wouldContinue reading “Before They Are Hanged – Joe Abercrombie”
Hannah’s Is Writing Fantasy
So I discuss this on the pod from time to time, but I am writing a fantasy novel. Well, hopefully a fantasy trilogy. I’ve been working on it for over ten years, and I am honestly afraid of how much work I’ve put into it for the past two years. This has been my babyContinue reading “Hannah’s Is Writing Fantasy”

Wheel of Time Show Is Here
The first Wheel of Time episodes dropped today. We have been building up to this TV series since we started the podcast in February (how has it been less than a year that we’ve been discussing Jordan’s books??). We are looking forward to looking at this show and seeing how his works are updated forContinue reading “Wheel of Time Show Is Here”
OWWR Playlist
If there is something that we really get into on OWWR Podcast (besides books), it’s usually music. We often drop random musical lines, songs, and everything in between. Off the podcast, we both love listening to music. We tend to have different styles of listening, and so we made a playlist to see what wouldContinue reading “OWWR Playlist”
