Happy Sunday, darlings!

In this episode, we tackle Chapters 4 and 5 of Shadow of Night, where we meet a few new characters, wrestle with the patriarchy, and realize that our goals are neither so clear–nor so easily obtained–as we thought.

We hope you enjoy this episode and look forward to hearing from you on Facebook, via e-mail, and on Twitter.

Until next time,

Cait and Jen

Episode 20 – Elizabethan Vacation

Y’all, middles are hard. Shadow of Night is a complicated, compelling, difficult, and rewarding book – we can’t wait to pick it over with you! In this episode, we discuss Chapters 1-3 of SON, as well as unnecessary vowels, good people, bad people (and Kit), and whether you ought to expect a historian of alchemy to know anything about bum rolls. If you’d like to know more about our approach, check out our post on why we do what we do. Our reading schedule for Shadow of Night is here

In our first wrap episode (titled rather like a Nancy Drew novel, or perhaps a lost chapter of Harry Potter), we dig deep into time travel theories, structure, conflict, narrative choice, the meaning of the epigraph, and our favorite things about ADOW.

We can’t believe it, y’all. We made it to the end of A Discovery of Witches! In the last chapter discussion episode, we tackle love and accountability, service and sacrifice, the need for a priest, wobbly time loops, and what exactly one does with a quince.

Thank you so much for joining us on this incredible journey! We can’t wait to talk about the whole book in our next episode!

Happy Sunday, Clovers! It’s time to tackle the penultimate group of chapters for A Discovery of Witches – we’ve got Diana’s healing, Matthew’s guilt, Sarah’s pain, and the Wilsons to look forward to! In this episode, we talk about found family, heteronormativity, grief, guilt, responsibility, and all sorts of heavy goodness — we hope you enjoy it!
