Episode Twenty-One S2 - Red Queen vs. Powerless
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This week, Katy and Rosie are trying something a little different… and potentially a little dangerous for the internet. Rosie has been reading Powerless by Lauren Roberts by, while Katy has been reading The Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard.
And we’re asking the question BookTok has been arguing about for months…
Is one a rip-off of the other?
Or are they simply two completely different stories written by two different authors that happen to share a handful of familiar fantasy tropes and themes?
We’re diving into the characters, the worlds, the powers, the romance, the writing styles, and whether the online controversy is actually fair… or just another case of the internet doing what the internet does best.
As always, this episode will contain spoilers for both books, strong opinions, and occasional bad language — so consider this your official warning now.
Grab a blanket, grab a coffee, get cosy… and let’s get into it.
