Believe it or not, we’re on our FOURTH installment in our Book Trope Series! Today is all about the book Ashley picked for Liz based on her top five favorite book tropes, and book boyfriend qualities: A Touch of Gold & Madness by K. L. Devore.

Did this book cover all of Liz’s bases? Like a morally grey MMC, mutually healing trauma, and enemies to lovers? Or did we uncover “icks” that Liz didn’t even know she had… that involve dancing and musical instruments?

Listen on to find out why both of us are giving this book 4 stars, and as usual, you can look forward to a faves and fails “adulting” edition, some deep questions about crows, and a smash or pass with two beloved flying characters.
