About this listen

In this week’s episode of Books Between Friends, we continue our journey through The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune, diving into chapters 6–10. Linus Baker has finally arrived at the Marsyas Island Orphanage—and nothing is as expected. From the eccentric caretaker Arthur Parnassus to a group of magical children with secrets of their own, Linus’s rule-bound world begins to unravel in the most delightful way.

We unpack our first impressions of the island, the heartwarming (and hilarious) moments with the children, and the early hints of deeper mysteries surrounding Arthur. Cozy fantasy, found family feels, and lots of laughter await as we sip our tea and talk about what’s really beyond the paperwork.
