Chapter 7: The Tamlin Effect

19 Aug 2025

Description

"The Tamlin Effect" dives into the phenomenon of the so-called "nice guy"—in fiction and in real life. You know the type: charming at first, protective in a way that makes you feel special… until the cracks start to show. Using Tamlin from A Court of Thorns and Roses as our case study, we unpack how the "nice guy" persona can be both intoxicating and toxic. From first dates that seem perfect to relationships that slowly close in like a velvet-lined trap, we explore why so many of us fall for this archetype—and how to recognize it before it’s too late. Whether you’re here for the bookish breakdown, the dating tea, or just to feel a little vindicated, this episode is equal parts literary analysis, real-life confession, and a friendly warning label for your heart.
