Heaving Bosoms – Details, episodes & analysis

Hey HBs!! We're back with part two of TRIPLE SEC by TJ Alexander! We jump right back in with a snowed-in vacation with only one fireplace! And that fireplace is utilized BEAUTIFULLY!

Bonus Content: rich people shit, useless Tops, gendered vs. neutral terms, a not-so-survival trope, and so much more!

Lady Loves:

Mel: checking out movies from the library and, more specifically, WAITRESS the musical! This is one of Mel's favorite shows of all time; Sara Bareilles wrote the score and her harmonies have always slayed her! Family movie time turned into Mel quietly crying into Ember's hair because everything was so beautiful.

Sabrina: interactions with HBs! HB Devon came through with some really great genetic statistics in answer to our call during our ep on A HUNGER LIKE NO OTHER and HB Emily gave Sabrina a masterclass on the British upper crust during a chat about the Maiden Lane series. HBS ARE THE BEST.

Hey HBs! Mel and Sabrina are here recapping TRIPLE SEC by TJ Alexander! It's a contemporary, queer, polyamorous romance that had them chatting for more than 3 hours (seriously, Mel cut over an hour of their nonsense. You're WELCOME.). We've got a polyamorous married couple, a certified and embittered lesbian, and a whole bunch of amazing queer and poly rep! And y'all, Sabrina has never been so worked up about a fictional character; she reached a new level.

Bonus Content: Sabrina gets got by IG marketing (this time in England), Mel finds a make-believe seggsual partner she probs can't with, the birth of the Chewbacca pin-up, the pals impart some classic HB etiquette, and so much more!

Hey HBs! Mel and Sabrina are here with AVARITIA by Colette Rhodes! This series is much beloved by both of them and this book didn't disappoint. Plus, we've got a heroine that is 100% HMHB (Hot Mess HB). It's a grumpy and adorably delusional Shadow Daddy plus a sunshine, go-with-the-flow, sex-positive maximalist. We went into this book with the promise of tentacle restraints, somnophilia, and primal and, in the words of Sabrina, "EVERY! CHECK! WAS CASHED!"

Bonus Content: Mel has poison ivy on her face, making fashion out of red flags, Colette Rhodes calls out 100% of the Heaving Bosoms podcast, and so much more!

Lady Loves

Sabrina: Lavender lemonade on a hot summer day! Get some sugar-free lemonade and add some lavender syrup to it!

Mel: Mario Kart with the kids! Everyone is finally old enough to play together and it's been super fun!

Hey y'all! Liz from the Make Out Already Podcast is here to chat about Reel by Kennedy Ryan! WOW this book is gorgeous! It's showbiz and glitz with beautiful commentary on art and creation and the fight. The fight for your life, for justice, for love.

Bonus Content: an episode of Behind the Bastards about the Twilight Zone movie, being a Chad with a B, rollerskating, juicy peaches, and being so petty your body would reject a kidney.

CW for illness, terminal illness, racism, cheating (in the past, not MCs), death of a loved one (in the past), and coworker romance.
