In this episode of Open/Booked, Tisha and Loren discuss the book 'Alchemised' by Sen Lin Yu, sharing their reading experiences and thoughts on the book's themes, character development, and comparisons to the author's previous work, 'Manacled'. They delve into the complexities of the story, including the portrayal of trauma, the role of magic, and the impact of adaptations on literature.

TW: discussion of rape in the book as well as deception, alchemy, and magic. In case you're new here, we spoil the books we are discussing so please be sure you're either ok with spoilers, or have read the book to avoid learning details you might not want. Also we cuss like sailors, on leave (IYKYK) so if any of that makes you uncomfortable please skip this one.
