We're diving back into the Bright Falls series by Ashley Herring Blake and read Astrid Parker Doesn't Fail this episode! Please see our previous podcast for Delilah Green Doesn't Care if you want to listen to them in order. This book has rom-com vibes along with HGTV vibes which is a very fun element to the story.

Join the Well Read Dames as we read this feminist classic from 1983 by Marion Zimmer Bradley, which turns the tale of Camelot on its head. Told from Morgaine's point of view opposed to Arthur's, Lancelot's, the Merlin's, or any other member of the round table's point of view, this book explores Avalon's side of the Camelot tale. Join us as we discuss the book and the mini series adaptation!

Join the Well Read Dames as we discuss the lovely rom-com Delilah Green Doesn't Care by Ashley Herring Blake!

The Well Read Dames are taking a break from book discussion to discuss a show we love as much as our books! Following the season 3 finale, and what might have been the series finale of Apple+ comedy Ted Lasso, we break down our favorite moments, characters, and discuss what we'd like to see in the future if we're gifted with more of this show that we love, including our thoughts on potential spin offs.

Join the Well Read Dames as we continue our favorite series so far of 2023! This episode we are discussing book 2, The Ballad of Never After by the brilliant Stephanie Garber.

To recap, Stephanie Garber first brought us the Caraval series, which we read and published our book club episodes of at the end of 2022. This new series takes Jacks, a character from Caraval, and gives him his own series, as a continuation of his story in these books. Our main character, whose POV we get for both books is, Evangeline, who has been teamed up with/stuck with Jacks, aka the Prince of Hearts, since she made a deal with him in Once Upon a Broken Heart to try and save those that she loved.

We pick up where we left off in this book and Evangeline struggles to simultaneously not trust Jacks, and to trust him, as her feelings for him grow ever more complicated, as does her life. Evangeline finds herself caught between curses, magical gemstones, and handsome vampires in this book. And there is also the whole ancient prophecy thing going on. Grab your favorite drink, throw on your headphones, and join us as we discuss this book, which in addition to being extremely fun, has one of the craziest cliffhangers we have ever encountered!
