Spreeding Bumps

Book Rant Episode 3

In this week’s episode we talk about speed bumps in our reading (aptly and awkwardly named spreeding bumps), Vee accepts a Contact challenge, and Jess breaks her book buying ban. Also of note: the need for good male role models, ~mood books~, not-quite-fantasy books, Monday meltdowns, The Four Doorways, and our very first fan mail!

Vee reviews La Belle Sauvage (The Book of Dust # 1) by Philip Pullman, the prequel to the His Dark Materials series: an ageless Gaslamp fantasy whose mundane spy roots plunge unexpectedly into the fairy world. Long live Norman!

Jess reads The Wicked Deep by Shea Ernshaw, a well-written book about ghost witches, revenge, and romance - all unfortunately set at the wrong time of year. Womp womp.

And sorry for the low audio volume. We’re figuring things out.
