On today’s episode we get into some of the KU reads that we hate to love, love to hate, and couldn’t even finish. These are the books that we wouldn’t dare share on our Goodreads and authors we’ll never read again. Be warned, a lot of these are VERY bad and some of the themes get pretty dark.

Hey, if you’re not a monster-fucker, this episode might be a LOT. If you ARE a monster-fucker, this episode might be a LOT. I’ll warn you it’s VERY gross. No forreal, it’s disgusting.

Melissa and Storm read Thick Beef by Layla Fae and decided this was going to be the first book on Smut Book Club that gets DNF’d (Did Not Finish).

Hey everybody,

Welcome to the inaugural episode of Smut Book Club’s Smut Book Club, a book club where me and Melissa read our long list of romance novels and talk about them in the only way we know how, messily. Melissa also shoots some ideas for the jingle for this particular podcast. It goes about as well as you think.

In this episode of Smut Book Club, Mel is joined by JP to talk about the book Office Hours by Katrina Jackson. They also talk about tropes that they do and don’t like in romance, and also the intrigue of foreign translated romances.

In this episode we talk about what constitutes tall (so that when Jamie becomes a dictator and shut down all the tall people), whether or not Storm is an enabler and what level of heat and weird we’re willing to deal with in a romance/erotica novel. This is a wild one, hope you enjoy it.

Melissa and De talk about some booktok drama and explain that there are certain boundaries you shouldn’t cross. Plus we talk a little bit about our Patreon Only Smut Book Club episodes that are coming soon!
