Iron Flame, Pt 10: Somebody We Used to Know

The Besties begin the episode discussing the 2024 solar eclipse and how SJM broke Jill’s reading pace. Mel gives us an update on her TBR jar and may just make an exception to her usual rule. 

 

We begin with chapter 40, and Mel goes into Felix, who he is, where he may have come from, and his opinions on Carr’s teaching abilities. The besties talk through Violet’s absolute lack of knowledge of her own signet and how that differs from the Violet, they knew in Fourth Wing. Violet then makes another dumb decision to do exactly the opposite of what Xaden told her to. 

 

In chapter 41 Jill and Mel talk about how Violet really just ran into this situation completely blind with zero preparation on her part. Xaden beat them there, and the two of them have a whole new reason to argue (about nothing). Violet goes to show off her signet, but is met with a not-so-pleasant surprise. Don’t mind the solid 10 minute tangent about 90’s baseball movies.

 

In Chapter 42 a little bit of a fight ensues, but they do finally get the deal they need for the luminary. But Brennan maybe makes a huge mistake. 

 

Mel and Jill are best friends who love to enjoy film, tv, books, and more and talk about them together. All opinions are not associated with the content we’re discussing.
