The rules are simple. You have £20. You need five book boyfriends.

Every man on the market has a price tag and you have to build the best possible roster without going over budget. Easy. Completely straightforward. Nobody lost their mind at all…

Round two gave us a trope budget, enemies to lovers, forced proximity, you get the idea.

We then bridged into the next New York Times bestseller with the return of Chad and Poppy. The publishing industry is not ready for this series 👏🏻

Name a cosier combination, we’ll wait..

We teamed up with to bring our community the perfect wind-down event for these cosy Sunday evenings in October

This week we started listening to the special 10th anniversary edition of the ACOTAR audiobook whilst taking up a variety of different crafts.

We finished the evening on Chapter 10 and attendees will be using Spotify’s Page Match feature to keep reading at home until we meet again next Sunday and pick up at Chapter 16.

This has been such a fun way to jump back into the world of Prythian in the lead-up to one of our most anticipated releases of the year, ACOTAR 6 ✨

Spooky season has arrived and The Spicy Librarian is not calm about it. This week we have exciting updates. As always, spilt here first, usually elaborated on, and most of the time Vickey doesn’t need to cut out.

We’re gearing up for our MaasVerse episode but before we do, we discuss our spooky season TBRs.

Then we get into our go-to gothic, spooky and ber reads, the ones we need you to read and the new ones making it onto our Fall TBR, . If your reading list is not sufficiently terrifying by the end of this episode, we have not done our jobs!

Your journey back to Prythian starts here ✨

This October, we’re teaming up with our friends at Spotify UK & Ireland for a three-part ACOTAR audiobook experience at The Spicy Librarian.

Join us on Sunday 4th, 11th and 18th October to listen to the special 10th Anniversary edition of A Court of Thorns and Roses, narrated by Elizabeth Evans, together in store.

At the end of each session, we’ll use Spotify’s Page Match to find our place in the paperback, so you can keep reading until we meet again the following week.

Your ticket includes entry to all three evenings, your own paperback copy of the book, as well as a selection of crafts and activities to keep you busy whilst we listen, plus a hot drink at each of the three evenings ☕️

The perfect way to fall back into the world of ACOTAR together.

Grab your ticket linked in our bio, we cannot wait! 🎧

Our sellout Threshing Day Midnight release party 😮‍💨😍🗡️📚

You guys snapped up all 50 of our tickets so fast and when we saw you arriving in fighting leathers we knew the countdown to midnight was going to be a fun one!

We chose our dragons, found out which quadrant we were in and laughed ALOT at some of the quiz answers floating around!

Until finally we were ready for the moment we have all been waiting for! To unbox our copies of Threshing Day.

A HUGE thank you to and for giving us our Empyrean fix and help making this night so special for our community.

Be honest in the comments, who’s finished the book already? 👀
