Episode 139: SQUID IN THE BUCKET - The Windflower by Laura London w/ @chels_ebooks pt. 2

Yo ho, ye Swee'peas!

Welcome back on board The Black Joke for the thrilling conclusions of our discussion on the more thrillingier THE WINDFLOWER by LAURA LONDON with the yet even more thrilling @chels_ebooks.

We pick up where we left off with the love story between Merry and Devon (but also Cat, Raven, a dream Unicorn, and the rest of the crew) and finally settle on our sexiest parts and weirdest parts.

Is a book being written in the eighties a valid excuse? Are romance authors written into the homes they describe? Are you sure that's a unicorn you're dreaming of?

Swash your buckles, poop your decks and bring the squid - we're bringing this one into port in style!


Episode 138: WEIRD SOUP - The Windflower by Laura London w/ @chels_ebooks pt. 1

Avast me hearties! This week the gals are the gang when @chels_ebooks of TikTok fame shares one of their favorite romances - THE WINDFLOWER by LAURA LONDON a.k.a. Sharon and Tom Curtis.

Merry is a sheltered lil’ patriot who gets in over her head when she’s kidnapped by pirates. The least pirate-y pirate, Devon, takes a shine to her….and so do all the other dreamy, fatherly, omnipotent, mysterious types that populate the ship.

Is a bodice ripper a bodice ripper if the bodice remains unripped? When is purple prose, you know, good? Sky rockets and roses or gears and pulleys?

Tangled feelings ahoy!
