Romantasy Roundtable: Fantasy Romance Reviews7 Marras 2025

Mate: Chapters 13-26

Episode Title: Mate – Chapters 13–26

Description: The Romanty Roundtable returns to the Pacific Northwest for part two of Ali Hazelwood’s Mate, where cults form, vows break, and everyone’s constantly shirtless. Amanda, Kim, and Rick tackle the middle stretch of the book—half domestic fluff, half hormonal apocalypse—as Cohen’s celibacy pact collides with Serena’s fast-approaching heat. Between werewolf theology, “good girl” debates, and the debut of The Howler App™, the trio agrees: there’s still no plot, but they’re having an amazing time.

Highlights include:

Domestic Wolfcore: Grocery dates, pink penguin pocketknives, and Cohen buying her every item she even glanced at.
Pack Dinner Drama: Meatballs, lemon-ricotta pancakes, and one young wolf learning what “touch her and die” really means.
Celibate Alpha Energy, Part 2: Haircuts, shaving foam innuendo, and the immortal line—“I remain tragically un-[bleep]ed.”
Werewolf Bar Mitzvah Continues: The covenant origins revealed—Cohen took his vow at 15, uniting a shattered pack and locking up his libido forever.
Cult of Constantine: Cliff-jumping prophets, suicidal acolytes, and the horrifying possibility that Serena might be divine…or related.
Self Soup Scene™: Ice baths, glands, and Cohen proving chivalry isn’t dead—it’s just sweaty.
Heat Cycle Havoc: Biology lectures, hormone injections, and the line heard round the pod: “My smell brings all the wolves to the yard.”

Plus: Drag Race linguistics, the eternal “Killer vs Princess” nickname debate, and a bonus Moonstruck detour that somehow makes perfect sense.

Next up: Mate – Chapters 27 to End. Expect resolution, revelation, and probably one final ladle of soup.
