Sometimes you choose a book by its cover. Or in this case, its sprayed edges. Kaitlin and I both had this book on our shelves and appreciated the push to read it. WARNING: We spoil everything. For full show notes, head to: www.jaycereadsromance.com/podcast/bookclub-theneverlist

In Jayce Reads Romance, host Jayce uses the world of romance novels as a starting point for far deeper conversations. This isn't just a book club audio log; it's a space where fiction meets the realities of health, culture, and personal fitness, all through the lens of sexuality and society. Each episode picks apart the themes, relationships, and intimate scenes found in popular romance to explore what they reveal about our own desires, boundaries, and well-being. Jayce approaches these topics with a curious and educational mindset, framing the chat as one you might have with a thoughtful friend. The discussions naturally weave through how the stories we consume shape our understanding of relationships, self-care, and empowerment. By analyzing these narratives, the podcast creates a unique entry point for learning and reflection on topics that are often shrouded in silence or stigma. It’s for anyone who believes that pleasure and personal growth are interconnected, and that sometimes, the most profound lessons are hidden within a happily-ever-after. Tune in for a community-oriented dialogue that is as intellectually engaging as it is personally relevant, proving that a romance novel can be much more than a simple escape.
