Jac and Amy - my favorite Sexy Chicken Sisters

Obsessed!!! This podcast is a Chefs Kiss for sure. The Sexy Chicken Sisters have totally changed my perspective on ACOTAR and SJM as a whole. Can’t wait to go thru Crescent City.

Insightful & Entertaining

I have listened to the ACOTAR series twice and am now reading through it, and this podcast is adding so much depth to an already great series. I'm noticing things I never would have before and seeing things through a completely different lens!

Love deep diving into ACOTAR!

Love the deep dive into ACOTAR - the discussions on foreshadowing, bread crumbs, etc. It makes me want to read the series again and I can't wait to see what other books/book topics are discussed!

I LOVE you guys! Thank you and please don't stop!

For the past 2 years I've been sharing ACOTAR with friends so I could have these conversations about it. YOU BOTH have itched a scratch for me! I thank you! Please don't stop!
