Episode 135: Cult Classic - "Prince Of Midnight" by Laura Kinsale

Yr grls return once again to their be-hatted author safe space with THE PRINCE OF MIDNIGHT by Laura Kinsale. Don't get too comfy though, the Marquis Du Sade and a Murder Cult are here, as well.

They say never meet your heroes, and by they we mean Leigh. She has sought out infamous highwayman The Prince of Midnight to save her village and get vengeance from the man who stole her family from her. She finds a capital-R Retiree who has a loyal wolf and not much else to recommend him. However, he is determined to make her like him, like really, really like him. Thus begins the angstiest buddy roadtrip you've ever been on.

Can horror and romance vibe? What to do when the emotional stakes are something the hero can never grasp? Is doing that ON a horse basically doing it TO the horse?

Kinsale away, Kinsale away, KinSAIL away with us.

Whoa!nus: Jane is Dead, Long Live Jane

At the conclusion of Jane Eyre, yr grls reflect on what brought us to Jane Eyre and where Jane Eyre has brought us - including, but not limited to, it’s contrasts with “Pride and Prejudice”.

Is Jane Eyre a self aware text or does it mostly benefit from modern readers seeing its Id? Is the Darcy more prevalent than The Rochester? Is an archetype it’s arc? What’s next?

What’s wet is always wet.
