In this episode of Reading Held Hostage Blue really tried, but for the first time on this podcast, and one of very few times in general, she could not finish this book. Allegiant by Veronica Roth was not able to be finished by Blue. We did get as much as we could into this episode only because it would have been really mentally uncomfortable to leave this episode out. Please enjoy the baby sounds.

In this episode of Reading Held Hostage we are sorry. This is not the best quality nor best content. Blame Blue. If she wasn’t such a freak about skipping things or doing a series from start to finish, we would have skipped this. Either way, please enjoy the babies cooing and the cats screaming!

Trigger warning in this episode regarding pedophilia, sexual assault and child death. In this episode of Reading Held Hostage we begin by discussing Discount Macklemore from the Divergent movies. While we are not actually talking about the guy from the movies who looked a lot like Macklemore, we are starting the Divergent Trilogy. Justin knows very little about this book and Blue never actually finished it as a teen. Join us on our adventure of learning why we hate the character Four so much!

In this episode of Reading Held Hostage we finish the Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, and honestly, 10/10 ending. Neither Justin nor Blue simped for Snow in the books, but maybe the movies will change their mind. Let us know how you felt about this additional Hunger Games Universe book by sending us an email or leaving a comment on our social media platforms. And make sure to leave us a review!

In this episode of Reading Held Hostage we read the Games portion of the Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. It is much less exciting than the original trilogy, but it holds its own. There is a quick twist at the end that introduces the next part. So make sure you stay to the end to understand what's going on next part.

In this episode of Reading Held Hostage Blue reads the Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins. The stand alone novel written to accompany the original Hunger Games trilogy. This breaks the rule that Blue has brought up time and time again “I won’t read it because you should have put it in the first books?” But in reality, this book is actually really good, and TikTok is simping over the actor who plays President Snow. Join Justin and Blue for a retreat back into the Hunger Games!

In this episode of Reading Held Hostage we are finally ending the Lorien Legacies. Forever! It’s done, unless y’all end up wanting su to read the novellas. Which Blue will do, but this time she will be the hostage as she doesn’t want to. Listen in to see if you agree with the absolutely insane romantic plot twist right in the epilogue.
