Husband Reads My Spicy Romance Books 🌶️📚

[@saltynikita5095]

My husband is a history professor and accidentally picked up my Kindle in the middle of a very smutty scene he came into my office and was like wtf its this? 😅

[@MadiCovington]

✨ corn ✨

[@katherinebraxton5068]

Oh my goodness.Was he like turned on by it at some point?

[@JacquelinElizabethWrites]

Better than the time my roommate was wondering what I was listening to and just stuck my ear up in her ear without asking. Never did that again though.

[@laughingcorrpseholly4136]

My husband picked up my phone I had a book open on and it was during a very very spicey scene in a book and he was like “my goodness.. I’m gonna have to start using these books as references….” 😂😂😂

[@tzdtug]

A PROFESSOR?! GURL OMG YOU ARE LIVING THE DREAM😩😔😭

[@ElisabetTX]

“You can’t read this with pants on” lol

[@marissaguajardo6451]

“There’s no sex??” Lolll me when I’m reading a closed door book 😭

[@MadiCovington]

oh same 🤣

[@HeatherHarrisfit]

Totally me 😂!!

[@a.katherinesuetterlin3028]

Ditto! 😅

[@Loverera2023]

11:19 “that is A WEOPONNn!” Literally dying on the floor. 😆 I really needed that laugh. It literally felt so good. TSA won’t be stopping my man, he’s non existent 😅

[@MadiCovington]

his commentary is great 🤣

[@Moxee11]

“That thing is a nuisance to bring everywhere” 😂😂😂 dead🤣

[@bookswiithsoph]

this video is HILARIOUS omg props to you for not turning tomato red!! 🤣

[@MadiCovington]

i was sweating for sure 😅

[@Harleyjane22]

“Let me just Go get two inches from the store”. 😂

[@nishthagupta1357]

Ikr I'm not even reading with them but it's so funny😂

[@DesertBean]

3:09 “You should be ashamed 🙄 “ 😂😂

[@lakshmia8264]

“You should be embarrassed”and “you can’t read this with pants on” got me lol 😂

[@Queencereal]

Genuinely the funniest video I’ve seen in a long time! Please do these monthly

[@MadiCovington]

definitely doing another video with him soon 😊

[@DioneN]

I also love kindle reading because you can read the smuttiest stuff at work and no one has to know. It’s great!

[@BBK83]

Yep!!! That's what I do 😂

[@KenjiiH]

❤

[@aprilskylynn]

I wonder if its hard for audiobook narrators to read this aloud in a recording studio along with others working there? Ik I'd either be cackling or turn red. You know what I'll keep it real- BOTH!!! LMAOOO 👋🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thanks so much sharing this! 💀👻📖

[@jessicagarcia98002]

They don’t pay them enough 😂

[@YunuPolsen]

I can listen to audio books as I work which is great fun, but I sure pray those spicy scenes don't suddenly become audible to my fellow co-workers. Yikes! 😊

[@KM-xq2xr]

Most of them record in an at-home studio.

[@acelovesdiyschristopher7023]

​@YunuPolsen have u ever heard the horror stories? The ones where someone's Bluetooth headphones run out of battery and disconnect or if they get pulled over by a cop or someone they see at their kids school stops them while they're listening to an audiobook in their car.

[@niciswandering1576]

your guys banter is so fun, loved both your energies. "that thing is a WEAPON" look

[@eugeniev-a4]

You two are so cute. The fact that you have your library, your space is... Goal

[@LanaCloon]

„Because I’ve been taking 9 inches before myself“ IM CRYING 😭😭

[@MadiCovington]

brock doesn't have a filter & i love it

[@Fnndjkvlf]

Men are into visual corn, whereas women into literary corn.

[@nikieria]

“Sometimes, sometimes” 😂😂😂😂

[@MadiCovington]

🤫😂

[@thehappyrecluse]

Gotta love his honesty 🤣

[@jenniferf.1601]

I would LOVE to get a man’s take on Rhysand’s confession in A Court of Mist and Fury. There isn’t a single woman I know who has read the book and isn’t inlove with Rhys for that heartbreaking confession! You should definitely have your husband read it…although he can’t read it in isolation so that’s somehow getting him to actually read the book 😂😂

[@MadiCovington]

i made him read ACOTAR last year, but he’s refusing to read ACOMAF right now :,) one day he will.

[@laughingcorrpseholly4136]

@@MadiCovingtonhow come he’s refusing to read ACOMAF? Lol he’s gotta!!!

[@StephenGreene-y8b]

@MadiCovington My wife started reading romance novels just a few years ago (and romance fantasy more recently) and when questioned about the spicy stuff she would be very vague. I finally took it upon myself to start listening to the audiobooks so we could talk about it. Made it through all the Bridgerton books and ACOTAR + sequels. There is a lot to make fun of but also a lot to enjoy. I would say to all the other spouses of romance readers out there... don't knock it until you try it. At best you enjoy it with them... at worst you have something with which to tease them relentlessly😂

[@seer6755]

I am a guy i also just finished reading the series i can give you my opinion. I assume you are talking about the cabin scene but if you can confirm for me i would be happy to give an opinion

[@RED-my9hl]

U haven't met a single woman who isn't in love with rhys? Now u have 😂

[@kalitaylor9064]

I always wondered how narrators get thru the smut without bursting into laughter. Definitely not meant to be read aloud...more under the covers with 'no pants on' 😂😂😂

[@michellepatten7460]

This is why I make book covers for my books 😊 because spice…. 😂

[@kimma508]

Good idea!

[@high.lady_3818]

“It is a weapon” BYEEE PLSSSS 😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@dh7m7]

This is actually literally so funny😭🤍 we literally need more of these kind of videos it’s a NEED🙏🏻.

[@fabricofdreams.]

Your husband seems so likeable! Loved this 😆

[@nicolemcmahon1250]

I laughed out loud soooooo much in this video!! Especially for Dixon Rule 🤣 You two are so awesome!!

[@MadiCovington]

glad you liked it, brock reading the application from The Dixon Rule is hilarious

[@katerynamastero6196]

Wow, the change of the dogs was so cute! And husband is having fun, nice to see that 😁

[@MadiCovington]

the pups are needy & brock is great 🤣🐶

[@willowmoon5063]

Every mate should read these if their partner has, it's such a connection to them.

[@tlglock1637]

I agree with him. It is difficult for me to read male characters written by female writers. I just don't think men's hearts wrench lol

[@PaulinaReadsss]

This was the funniest thing ever 😂😂😂 I love how you were kind of blushing kinda laughing 😆 I would blush too for sure 😳😂

[@tcshaitan1]

I just came across your channel and I love it. I used to read so much when I was younger but life got so busy I stopped. So I'm working on getting back to it. Great video you and your husband are so funny together.😂

[@Talhn]

lmao "ok let me go get 2 inches from the store real quick" hahahhahahah his quotes are gold.

[@georginarippingale9627]

‘That’s a nuisance to carry round’ 😂😂

[@haileyberkenpas5448]

I genuinely giggled throughout this entire video. MORE PLEASE 👏

[@JuiceyBabs]

This was hilarious! Especially Brock’s commentary on the Dixon rule and the spine of a book. TSA indeed 😂😂😂

[@MadiCovington]

he secretly wants to read The Dixon Rule for sure

[@beanvvv]

the meter stick clip was too funny omgg😭😆

[@MadiCovington]

i’m glad i got that on camera 😆

[@bayleenicolereads]

This video is literally so funny 😂 love seeing Brock on the channel 🤩

[@MadiCovington]

he's a good sport 😆

[@Johanna_reads]

Madi, I just discovered your husband's channel in the Lit-Fic area of BookTube, and now I'm happy to find yours as well! This was hilarious! I had no idea Gravity's Rainbow had smut!

[@MadiCovington]

hi johanna! thanks for supporting us both, we have super similar taste in books if you can’t tell 😅😂

[@phglam]

Omg this is too cute. My husband read some passages from my smutty romance on kindle and boy o boy hilarious 😂 had my dieing laughing.

[@wendyfisher7090]

Omg! Y’all literally made me lol. His opinion on these books had me in tears from laughing. 🤣

[@MadiCovington]

he's so honest about his opinion too 😂

[@yencymartinez4138]

I absolutely love seeing you laugh so much and seeing the great sense of humor you both have. We all should laugh more.

[@saraferguson1156]

I’m team Brock because I don’t know how that scene is important to the plot 😂😂😂 your husband is hilarious!!

[@MadiCovington]

the smut definitely comes out of left field sometimes, but SOMETIMES it makes sense 😂

[@kimma508]

I’m a new subscriber and I love you already! I just started reading Dixon Rule and I’m hooked. I look forward to watching more of your videos. Your husband is hilarious and a good sport! You guys are adorable!

[@MadiCovington]

yay! thank you for the support! 🥹🤍

[@mousegrey6747]

I just want to point out that I actually prefer when the spice doesn’t add to the story- because when I don’t want to read it (or I’m in public) it’s a lot easier to skim through

[@ShaleBeeLinn]

I’m loving his Fireheart shirt 😮🩵

[@MadiCovington]

he supports my etsy shop more than anyone 🤣🥹

[@Inconsistent-Dogwash]

I feel like getting him to read one of those alien “romance” books would be fun.

[@MadiCovington]

he would be so confused 😂

[@singinglibrarian]

I feel like you need to have him read a historical romance, like one of the smut scenes in bridgerton

[@peyton-]

This was soooo funny!! 😂 We need more.

[@Crazykajunchic]

Oh man, when you pulled out The Dixon Rule.. I was REALLY hoping for the scene with Will cause that was 🥵🥵🥵

[@MadiCovington]

so. i thought about doing that one… but it’s a little advanced for him 🤣

[@heyitsheatherc]

We need more Brock commentary! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@katherinebraxton5068]

😂I love the watching the facial exexpressions on my coworkers faces when I allow them to read a page of my spicey novels.

[@MadiCovington]

oh god, i couldn’t imagine letting my coworkers read them 🤣

[@ariusrainer9345]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 EEEEEEW!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 "I feel like you shouldn't read this with pants on"!🖤

[@dogmom2844]

I love the vicious lost boys. I just wished that Nikki Saint Crowe would’ve bound the first two books together and then books 3 and four together because they’re so. Thin

[@rlg2926]

This kind of reminds me of when I read Like Water for Chocolate by Laura Esquivel. There was that one scene where the characters did it on a moving horse. I could not help it I started cackling because it sounded too impossible to me. Like wth. 😂😂

[@MadiCovington]

brock said "there's no way, that's insane" 😂

[@Sky-Child]

Haha has the author ever ridden a horse? Like alone?! Nonsense

[@ozzygirl098]

Just came across your video and decided to click on it…. Your husband is hilarious and I couldn’t stop laughing! Thank you for this video as it gave me more books to check out for sure! Much love all the way from Winnipeg Manitoba Canada 🇨🇦 Sharon H❤

[@MadiCovington]

thanks for commenting! he is pretty dang funny 😆

[@theellasteel]

oh my good the dixon rule was so fun to read!!!

[@elliecheung4527]

The Dixon Rule FWB application... cracked me up XD

[@b.knotty]

Brock’s commentary was hilarious!

[@MadiCovington]

he’s a goof

[@samanthaaffleck1855]

Laughed so hard when he said “COMPARED TO WHAT I READ?!” 😧🫣

[@Ashley-xe9gs]

I’m dying 😂 you and your husband are hilarious together 😂

[@ShortGard3nGnom3]

OMG ANOTHER JUST FOR THE SUMMER FAN YESS!!! ALSO I THOUGHT THERE WAS NO SMUT IN IT I THOUGHT IT CUT OFF INTO BLANKNESS-

[@Rachel-xx9hu]

His shelf looks amazing- Hegel’s Phenomenology of the Spirit & Heidegger’s Being & Time!! Such a funny vid though ❤️

[@laughingcorrpseholly4136]

Tell me how I knew that last book was A Court of Silver Flames before we even got started 😂😂😂

[@MadiCovington]

😈

[@amira_856]

As a girl that loves romance, but isn’t really into smut, I LOVED watching this. This is exactly why I don’t like it, since I would just end up laughing at it😂

[@WildLyulf3]

@Madi Covington, not sure if you've read them but you should try the Buttons& Lace set by Penelope Sky as well as Hungry for her Wolves by Tara West

[@bettytrembly6538]

My cousin read a book with strong romance..lol in the same room with her grandfather and had to get up and leave because she was embarrased.

[@radudumanovschi3387]

If you make your husband read smut, make him read Looking to Score by Alley Ciz. It is American football romance and has the masculine perspective of smut.

[@MadiCovington]

thanks for this rec! i'll add to my goodreads!

[@factssstation]

Is this YA???( acosf) "NO" oh my gosh "NO" 😂😂😂😂

[@MadiCovington]

it’s a definite no 🤣

[@nishthagupta1357]

I love his reactions so much omg😂❤

[@AthenaCat0324]

My guy best friend came to visit one time while I was reading a Judith Mcnaught book (Until You) and I quickly hid it under a throw pillow only for him to discover it when I went to get him some soda😂😂😂 I think he was traumatized

[@Sheezal_Chauhary]

"She chants his name" *Proceeds to chant* IT GOT ME ROLLING-

[@ToReadersItMayConcern]

Best series on BookTube.

[@MadiCovington]

it’s too funny to get his opinion on these

[@high.lady_3818]

12:30 CRACKED ME UP 💀😭

[@shruti8154]

First time viewer❤. Im telling you if my future husband doesn't engage like this i dont need him. 😂😂😂

[@MadiCovington]

facts

[@Ashley_e]

reaction to the RH face is 😂 I completely agree with that face. I’m like I can’t read this. What are you talking about! I can’t do Rh! But it’s funny reaction nonetheless “ let me get 2 inches from the store real quick” 😂😂

[@KcE-in4fc]

My husband was listening to my auto while we're driving. Every time it was the guys part, it was a guy talking, and he didn't care for it. He thought it was strange. That guy size was rare. It's definitely not something women want, lol.

[@AndressaSilva-hh6mx]

What a great idea this video is!!! Never saw this nowhere 😂😂😂 great for us to laugh and feel second hand embarrassed

[@rima97_]

His commentary is legendary 😂😂😂

[@ascia158]

I just checked his channel it's amazing ! He's not a boring reader

[@MadiCovington]

he’s not a boring reader, we just tease eachother 🥰

[@latofatifa8395]

the thing about heroes in books that they aren't real they are fictional charachters created mostly by women .. it's hard to find a realistic man charachter in books that say real thing and beeing romantic at the same time ... i myself feel the jealousy in my husband but never heard one word that mean i feel jaloues or i wanna kill evry man staring at you . and trust le he is so so jealous somtimes it's so frustrating and unbearable .. and it goes for other thing in tbeir personalities ... but the thing is we love that i' fictiin that's why we read them... they just fiction
