An ancient curse has been cast on Alex Pearlman, a curse of 624 pages of fairy romance. And this curse was cast by the team leads at Pearlmania500.net.

You are cordially invited to hear the TWO AND A HALF hour tale, of Mr. P explaining the plot of A Court of Mist and Fury (ACOTAR BOOK 2) to Mrs. Pearlmania.

This episode, LIKE ALL OF OUR BOOK CLUB EPISODES is chock full of spoilers We cover it all, from Sarah J Maas's need for an editor who will cut at least one page of exposition, to how soup is a running theme, and how this is a story of a 19 year old woman who doesn't understand how to establish boundaries that aren't fairy bargains. Feyre, Tamlin, Rhysand, Jurian, Lucien, Amarantha, Amren, Azriel, Cassian, Nesta and Mor are hear. So Many many Mor. Prepare your mind and sould to reenter the land of Prythian and Hybern, which is definitely not the British Isles. And listen for the sounds of THE NIGHT COURT, which does not have judge Harry Stone.

Alex has added more cities to the tour! Including, NJ, AZ and CA!

gem

Moth_Goblin

I just woke up. And this is the first thing I see. My husband I have been waiting are so excited to listen! Yay!!!

Pepe Silvia

I went back to listen to the BetterHelp episode on Apple Podcasts (I couldn’t get it to work here) and the first ad was BetterHelp 💀

Mad Bob

Night court 😎🎸

Harley Watkins

As someone who reads a lot of smut and a lot of fantasy, this series isn’t even my favorite, BUT it gives me so much life to hear you talk through these books. It’s going to take a while but I cannot wait for you to get to my favorite book in this series, A Court of Silver Flames 🔥🔥🔥

Riley Rose

The trope is Born Sexy Yesterday! It was coined by Pop Culture Detective

SeasonalSaudade

Does Mrs P need to watch Avatar the last Airbender?

Riley Rose

Also I still listen w ads so y’all can make that bag and I got a better help ad 🤣

The Night Man Cometh

Finally! I am locked in, and ready to hear spicy fairy book 2.

Janinemania500

I took my dog on an extra long walk this morning because this episode dropped just in time.

snelly

this was hilarious - full face reactions the whole time to just the nonsense that is this series😂😭

Sleepy McSleepyhead

I’m literally risking it all listening to this at work without head phones. (I forgot them at home and I couldn’t wait that long)

Christina

Oh my god! Yes! The reason to why I joined! Hahaha I want Alex to read alll 20 books. 💀💀🤣✨

Nixie

I haven’t finished reading this book yet, but I can’t wait to listen. Experiencing it through the lens of Mr. P is going to be 10x better anyway.

PotatoCoven

Commenting so Mrs P watches Avatar the Last Airbender 🙏

Kat Roy

This was the perfect start to my Monday. Thank you. So how many Patreons do we need to bully Mr. P into reading Book 3? 😂 I also would absolutely listen to a Mrs. P watches ATLA podcast

JK

Mortal Queen #6: Jimbo

Meghan Strong

Book 3? You know you want to read the Feyra, Rhysand, Tamlin reunion 😂😂😂😂

Lulu

LETS FUCKING GO

mr. buttons

Man. What a fuckin trip. I feel for you both. What a tragic slog of a book! I think next MR. P. book should be a book he picks out.

Short_Range_Attack_Chicken

Ok seriously lost it in my car while driving when Alex said he pictured Brian Blessed as Rhysand! Nearly had to pull over. 😳😳 “Ah, well; who wants to live forever? DIVE!” 😅😂🤣😭 Btw I take offense to Alex saying Flash Gordon was a bad movie! 😏 I saw this when I was young and thought it was freaking awesome my folks had it on Laserdisc ! 😝😅 It’s a cult classic dang it! 😜

SayaMatsuki

I was legit laughing out loud at my desk listening to this (thankfully I had headphones). I’m not going to lie, I’d love to hear Alex do the rest of this series. Also, Mrs. P, please watch Avatar, it’s so good! It would also make great podcast material for you guys to talk about. If nothing else, an episode where Mrs. P gets told the whole of Avatar lore would be amazing too.

Verity Lala

I’m only part way through, but this is already everything I’d hoped it would be 🤣

marshmallowcactus

I listened on Spotify first (I'm lazy) and the way I laughed when y'all's Better Help rant was IMMEDIATELY followed by a Better Help ad 💀

Althea H

Oh my commute is about to be amazing 👀😂

Jennifer

The way the smut is written is so 🤢Considerable length took me out!

marshmallowcactus

I talk about going to therapy too close to Facebook.

Pearlmania500

I feel like it would only be via cease and desist.

Sarah Luck

Obviously I'm here but I clicked the wrong feed in my podcast player and I didn't realize I was listening to the ad version until I got a betterhelp ad IMMEDIATELY after y'all's rant about it 😂

Bbchubbs_xoxo

This is what my little heart needed, thank you Pearlmans

Nala

I NEED him to read the rest of the series, this was absolutely exactly what I thought it would be and more!

Buffy Like Beer

Just waiting for that “Checkov’s Gunnilingus” hey hon.

Pelicans are my favorite dinosaur

Will listen on my morning walk. Today was spent looking for my escaped cat. She came home just before dark but my stomach was in knots all day and even the Perlman's couldn't have eased my distress. Yay for safe returns and yay for Acotar 2!

Patronofchaos

Determined to have Mr. p read all of them (and then maybe Fourth Wing 👀)

Demolition Dormouse

Let’s goooo! Also, the sixth mortal queen, who pulled a no-show, is CLEARLY Katya.

S.K.

THIS is what I joined for. Lets goooooo.

Pelicans are my favorite dinosaur

This may already be in the comments. Do t have time to read right now but want to type before I forget "born sexy yesterday" is how I've always heard of the child in a woman's body who gets taken advantage of by icky man.

Leilany Lopez

You can skip book 4 of the series. it's just a novella that literally adds nothing to the plot. I don't think you're prepared for the spicy content of book 5. Makes Checkovs Gunnilingus look tame 😂😂😂

Another_angry_ginger

In regards to better help, I work in a personal injury law firm and better help refuses to release their records to attorneys…that’s a little red flaggy right there 🤷‍♀️

Hjonklike

Not to push for Alex’s stance on defunding libraries, but I want him to read book 3 & 5 now. How many people do I have to add to down line to make this happen? (Post soup for my family tour)

Hjonklike

Petition for Alex to read twilight lmao

Hjonklike

Gods if they thought feyre had her insufferable moments imagine if they get to Aelin in the early books 🤣

Lauren Jane

TIL Black Adder was not *only* a font

Verity Lala

Guys. This was A DELIGHT to listen to. Bravo.

Verity Lala

There’s a YouTube account called Shitty Book Club, who does a recap of S J Maas’s other series (equally as ridiculous as ACOTAR). It’s kind of like if Mr P had a little sister who did her own version of this book club 😂

Sly Cooper

The comment from Alex about an old person in like a young/childlike body did he mean a lolli?

Fingerbang_fairy

I listen to the pod on Apple because I can queue my other podcasts even though I’m a patron, I had a better help ad right after the rant 😅

Cheynne

I assume the ‘childlike brain in an adult body’ is the ‘born sexy yesterday’ trope. Aka a fully adult women through something or some circumstance, is sort of ‘reborn’ and is very childlike in their behaviors.

Desma

So, what you’re saying is - fuck better help lol

Listen_up_poop_butt! You_are_a_cutie_patootie!

Low key I did split this up over some days…the way I screamed in my car!! Worth being a Patreon for this. Oh my gawd. Never would I ever have guessed. Worth the price of admission.

supersaiyansquirrel

I’ve been bingeing episodes, and I just wanna say… a new drinking game could be: every time Mr P says “all these different things”, take a drink. 😂 It’s in almost every episode

Bear Case

I’m sorry, I had to pause and take off my headphones at Chekov’s Gunnilingus 😂😂😂

Kel Mac

I love Mrs. Pearlman! LOL her comments that make Alex just go silent - I could hear the glare he gave her! LMFAO 😂

Kay W

Muppets Christmas Carol is everything!!!

Paige Morgan

This episode kept me company during the entirety of an entirely too long drive home

✨Sparkling Misandry✨

A delight, I FINALLY finished, lol. Now which of y'all filthy animals am I gonna see at the Portland show tonight 👀

E

So ACOTAR was always traditionally published and even when it was initially released, it was heavily marketed with that original cover. I’m a self-published romance author, and you’d be surprised how impeccable a lot of self-pubs are, from the covers to the story to the editing. And there’s a LOT of trad pub schlock. It’s truly all over the place so YMMV.

NeverEnoughHammers

Screaming because finally have time to listen and I’m listening on Spotify and the very first ad after the part about BetterHelp is…BetterHelp. Feels like that was intentional by Spotify

deviled_bells

The 6th Queen was BenDela Creme.

Paige Morgan

Haha yes 😂 it was a 3 hour drive…..

Mojo Jojo Nixon

Well I named my son Cassian cause of Star Wars and I thought it sounded cool. First I was bummed that he has the same name as one of these dudes. But I guess it’s like the most badass dude? I’m sticking with Star Wars whenever people ask me

Katherine

Started reading SJM my senior year in hi school. I’m 24 now, so this was pre book tok. Loved her books. Thought she was the best author I’d ever read. And again I was in highschool so I was reading like Jane Austen and Shakespeare at the same time for school. I reread the acotar books at least two dozen times. It was ground breaking to me and at the time was really different than anything else in the subgenre of fantasy romance. I am, in short, very much so the target audience for this book. And I totally see all the stuff very wrong with it. But my age group hit puberty when the twilight books were big. We like what we like it’s not our fault. And sometimes you just want some weird Fae finger stuff.

Mrs.Mothman

Chekovs gunnilingus had me about pissing myself. Even better is I’m listening to this at work

Mrs.Mothman

This series got me back into reading in college and looking back, it definitely not some ground breaking lit but damn if it didn’t scratch that itch for me

Andrea Hay

Can Mrs P present “The Centre” by Ayesha Manazir Siddiqi in one of her book club episodes. I think both of you will enjoy it.

Kristen Cocciante

I’m obsessed with the night court theme song usage lmao it did not get old, genuinely my favorite part of this episode

JD Sídhe

My favorite thing about this series is that it was originally published as "new adult" fiction, which was very briefly a genre between YA and full adult shenanigans. And it's full of just the WORST relationships you've ever seen.

Kayla_from_delaware

“I offered to lick your whole body, dude.” 🤌🤌🤌

Kayla_from_delaware

I have never loved and hated something so much. The man that yells at me on TikTok just read smut to me. My 2025 has been insane
