Happiest Sunday, Clovers!

It’s Week 100 or something of lockdown and we are headed right into the weeds of Marcus’s story — it gets wacky, but that’s to be expected.

In today’s episode, we’re covering Chapters 21-22 of Time’s Convert — Marcus’s transformation from human to vampire, some thorny issues of transformation and consent, questions and answers, family and rebirth, manners, and an unexpected musical interlude.

We’re rapidly approaching the 2020 Real-Time Reading of A Discovery of Witches! If you haven’t participated before, the Real-Time Reading is an opportunity to re-read A Discovery of Witches one chapter at a time on the day the plot “happens” — it’s a wonderful way to mark the passing of the seasons and to bide our time before the release of A Discovery of Witches TV Season 2 in January 2021.

In recognition and celebration of this event, we’re doing a live reading event on Friday, 18 September 2020, via Zoom — if you’re interested in joining us for camaraderie and magic, you can join our Facebook group, the Chamomile & Clove Clovers, to RSVP. You can also follow our Real-Time Reading posts via Twitter or participate in the All Souls Discussion Group on Facebook.

We look forward to celebrating the changing season with you and hope you enjoy the episode.

Happiest Sunday, Clovers!

In today’s episode, we’re covering Chapters 29, 31, and 34 of Time’s Convert! This rounds out the storyline for Diana, Matthew, and Marcus in the present before we get into the heart of the book – Marcus’s past! In these chapters, we’re talking about the trouble with spellbinding, parenting and trauma, breaking analogies (and characters), and what kind of a cake you bake for solstice. There may or may not be wasps.

Episode 79 – The Judgemobile

Happy Sunday, Clovers!

It’s a beautiful, hot midsummer day here at C&C East. We hope that you are safe, well, and healthy and that you’re ready for an unexpectedly musical episode of Chamomile & Clove.

In this episode, we’re covering Chapters 20 and 24 of Time’s Convert. It’s Matthew’s rebirthday party and we’ve FOOLISHLY invited Baldwin to dinner to make a ruckus in the name of family time. It gives us a great opportunity to talk about acceptance, tolerance, body image, vampire hierarchy, and why biting is (and simultaneously is not) a great tool for solving problems. Guys, there’s so much biting today. There is also a lot of improvised singing, so consider yourselves warned.

Download the episode here.

Our reading schedule for Time’s Convert is here. Don’t forget to follow along with the All Souls Discussion Group‘s read-along of the novel this summer — we’re going in a different order, but there’s great discussion in the community and you should check it out. You can find us on Facebook as part of the Chamomile & Clove Clovers group or on Twitter @chamomilenclove. We’d love it if you reviewed our show on iTunes, became a patron through Patreon, or bought some C&C swag on Redbubble.

Love you always. See you next time,

Yours, musically,

Cait and Jen
