Ship Happens!
Raelspeth (One Dark Window) - "Can I kiss you? Not on your mouth."
For a dark, gothic vibey time, join us for a steamy adventure with a Nightmare that rhymes. Today we dive into the romantic fantasy world of 'One Dark Window' by Rachel Gillig. We explore the main characters, Elsbeth and Raven, and their complicated romance involving magic cards, secret powers and hidden identities.
We discuss their mixed feelings about the book, touching on its strong points like atmospheric writing and compelling side characters, while also critiquing its insta-love elements and underdeveloped main couple chemistry.
We also have our first listener notes! We respond to feedback from a previous episode on 'The Legend of Zelda' ship, shedding light on why Link and Zelda are beloved by fans.
