    Hello and welcome back to another season of Shit We’ve Read! We’re kicking off Season Four with a discussion of the first volume of the Eisner, Harvey, and Hugo Award winning comic book series, SAGA! Written by Brian K. Vaughan with art by Fiona Staples, this “sexy and subversive adult drama” is the “sweeping tale of one young family fighting to find their place in the worlds.” Join us for another episode of “Is this more scifi or fantasy?”, we discuss the book’s theme of outsourcing war, and Jason explains why you shouldn’t buy this book for your grandson. Plus, learn why Bella describes Jason as “That Girl”. ‍♀️

  • 29: Bookshops & Bonedust
    Mar 27 2024

    It’s our Season Three finale! We’re returning to the world of Legends & Lattes with a discussion of Travis Baldree’s BOOKSHOPS & BONEDUST; “a journey of high fantasy, first loves, and second-hand books.” Join Jason, Bella, and Laura as we discuss how well this prequel connects to the first book, Jason questions if the genre of cozy fantasy is for Laura, and we share what we would call “smut” in a fantasy setting… Plus, we give our predictions for the type of cozy business a future book in this series might be about.

    As a reminder, this is our last episode of the season, but we will be back in May for Season Four! Thanks for listening and for all your support this season. To keep up with any updates and announcements we make during our break, be sure to follow us on social media!

  • After Dark: Good Deeds
    Feb 28 2024

    It’s the last After Dark episode of the season and we’re discussing Laura’s pick, GOOD DEEDS by Kathryn Moon; a “whychoose romance novel, starring a feisty heroine and five fritzing hot android heroes.” Listen in as we question why the sex scenes weren’t more imaginative, Emma brings up the unintentional ableism, and Jason explains why this book put the fun back into sex. Plus, Bella learns what “knotting” is! It’s a feisty episode with four fritzing hot co-hosts!
