  • Episode 18 | ToG Series: The Assassin's Blade – The Assassin and the Desert Part 2: Ch. 7-12
    Apr 24 2025

    In this episode of Booked for Two, we’re finishing our trek through the Red Desert with Part 2 of The Assassin and the Desert from The Assassin’s Blade by Sarah J. Maas—chapters 7 through 12. The training is intense, the stakes are higher, and Celaena’s about to find out that not all betrayals come with warning signs.

    New skills. New scars. And a whole lotta emotional damage.

    🔹 Stable duty and rooftop snake dancing—yes, it’s as weird and intense as it sounds. 🔹 The Mute Master stays silent... until he absolutely does not. 🔹 Celaena and Ansel’s friendship? Teetering between “girl gang” and “knife fight.” 🔹 Trust is tested, lines are crossed, and one arrow says more than words ever could. 🔹 Mercy becomes the deadliest move on the board.

    This week is all about hard choices, assassin vibes, and the moment Celaena starts becoming something more. And next week? We’re heading back to Rifthold—and let’s just say, home is not where the heart is.

  • Episode 17 | ToG Series: The Assassin's Blade – The Assassin and the Desert Part 1: Ch. 1-6
    Apr 17 2025

    In this episode of Booked for Two, we’re heading deep into the dunes with the first half of The Assassin and the Desert from The Assassin’s Blade by Sarah J. Maas—chapters 1 through 6. Celaena’s landed in the Red Desert for her next mission, and it’s basically the Assassin Hogwarts meets sandstorm bootcamp.

    No friends. No weapons. No Arobynn. Just heat, attitude, and a lot of stairs.

    🔹 Celaena’s stripped of her blades and thrown into assassin school with major Cobra Kai energy. 🔹 Mute Master of the Silent Assassins? Low-key terrifying. High-key impressive. 🔹 New girl Ansel looks like a walking red flag wrapped in a tragic backstory—and Celaena? Intrigued. 🔹 We’ve got rooftop brooding, mysterious missions, and sand everywhere (Anakin Skywalker would be pissed). 🔹 The girls steal some horses… because of course they do.

    This week is all about trust issues, silent tests, and a little “mean girls in the desert” energy. And next week? Shit gets real.

  • Episode 16 | ToG Series: The Assassin's Blade – The Assassin and the Healer
    Apr 10 2025

    In this episode of Booked for Two, we’re diving into novella number two from The Assassin’s Blade by Sarah J. Maas: The Assassin and the Healer. And let’s just say… Celaena’s fresh off a trauma tour and stuck in a dead-end port town with nothing but her temper, her daggers, and a ship that won’t show up.

    The job? Doesn’t exist. She’s in between missions, halfway to rock bottom, and not exactly radiating sunshine. Meanwhile, sweet barmaid Yrene Towers is out here trying to survive rude patrons and dream of a better life—until a mysterious stranger in all black crashes into her world like an emotionally damaged Batman.

    🔹 Celaena’s grieving and pissed—and somehow still mentoring like it’s a full-time gig. 🔹 Yrene’s got heart, hustle, and a whole lot of “Wait, what did you just say about poisons?” 🔹 Assassin training, late-night pep talks, and an unexpected girl-power pivot. 🔹 The vibes? Equal parts Kill Bill and “you can sit with us… after you stop whining.” 🔹 He Said/She Said is BACK! Who wins this round: soft girl dreams or sharp-tongued tough love?

    Next week, get ready for The Assassin and the Desert, where Celaena trades knives for sand—and spoilers, she hates both.

  • Episode 15 | ToG Series: The Assassin's Blade – The Assassin and the Pirate Lord
    Apr 7 2025

    In this episode of Booked for Two, we crack open the first novella of The Assassin’s Blade by Sarah J. Maas: The Assassin and the Pirate Lord. And y’all… Celaena’s out of the glass castle and heading straight into Pirate Territory™. What could possibly go wrong?

    The mission? Simple. Travel to Skull’s Bay with Sam Cortland, handle a little business, and return to the Assassins’ Keep. The reality? Pirate Lords, slave ships, and enough tension between Sam and Celaena to cut through bone. And yeah… there's a horse involved.

    🔹 Celaena is sent on a mission—but she’s not playing by anyone’s rules but her own. 🔹 Sam Cortland enters the chat… and instantly becomes Problematic™ in the best way. 🔹 Rolfe, the Pirate Lord, finds out the hard way that underestimating Celaena is a very bad idea. 🔹 Swashbuckling, sabotage, and some morally-questionable flirting—what’s not to love? 🔹 He Said/She Said is BACK! Who wins this round: deadly eyeliner or boyish charm?

    And don’t forget—next week we keep the novellas rolling with The Assassin and the Healer! Plus, our Fourth Wing spoiler-free AND spoiler-filled review drops Monday, March 31—mark it down, dragon lovers.
