Sierra and Jenna review “Twisted Love” a TikTok favorite that left us wanting...more?

This week, we read Twisted Love by Ana Huang

This first book in a four book series follows Ava and Alex — a duo whose love that was never supposed to happen unleashes secrets that could destroy them both...and everything they hold dear Twisted Love is a contemporary brother's best friend/grumpy sunshine romance. 

Sierra joins me on this episode to discuss: 

• How many tropes were actually in this book
• Why we now want to read the rest of the books in the series for an unknown reason
• Why it still only took us a day to read this book

Open your book and press play on a podcast episode that will have you questioning if character development really counts as just making someone overcome their fear of water. 

Mentioned in the Pairings section of the podcast:

• DRINK: Black Velvet, Cheap Champagne 
• TV SHOW - Virgin River, Outer Banks 
• BOOK - Fifty Shades of Gray, Promises and Pomegranates
• MOVIE - 10 Things I Hate About You, Twilight, 365 Days

At Red Wine Reads, we want to engage in the stories of people from all kinds of backgrounds and experiences. The value of books lies in the power of storytelling and sharing a range of perspectives. We don't want to just read what we know, we want to read stories that open our worldview. And in turn, that means getting into challenging, rewarding conversations. But we are not experts in any field — literature, race relations, politics, etc .— and we know that our reviews of these books come from a place of privilege. We encourage our community of readers to add to these conversations with their own thoughts, critiques, and questions. We want to open up a safe place for people. That being said, we also realize that getting into race, sexuality, gender, and other difficult topics can be triggering. We aim to include content warnings whenever they are applicable but we are not perfect. So as we continue to do our best, know you have the room to tell us when we can do better and even, if you want to, share resources with us. Let's learn, grow, and have fun together.
