Astrid Parker Doesn't Fail Book Club Discussion

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. This book is a delightful sequel and we all really enjoyed Astrid's journey of self discovery. Grab your headphones, your favorite drink/snack combination, and join us for this book club discussion!

Mist of Avalon Book Club Discussion

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!

We dig deep in this one to discuss miscommunications, childhood trauma, and of course that embarrassing meet-cute!

Ted Lasso Discussion

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.

The Ballad of Never After Book Club Discussion

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!

Stephanie Garber first brought us the Caraval series, which we read and published out 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. We are also introduced to one of our favorite main characters, Evangeline, who is not afraid to make a deal with the Prince of Hearts to save those she loves. Grab your favorite drink, throw on your headphones, and join us for this magical ride!

House of Sky and Breath Book Club Discussion

Welcome to this episode where we are discussing the second book in the Crescent City series, House of Sky and Breath written by Sarah J. Maas, or Queen Maas, as I like to call her. This book was a long and fantastic ride, which ended in my favorite cliffhanger of all time, which is saying quite a lot. Join us as we discuss each character's journey this book, our favorite moments, favorite characters, and break down our reactions to the cliffhanger, which left us literally screaming. Since it doesn't look like we're getting CC3 or any other SJM book in 2023, talking about the books we already have out is the next best thing.

Just a long recap

Was looking for a discussion on Crescent City. Was more of just a two hour recap with a few minutes of discussion at the end. Would have enjoyed less recap, since I read the book already and more a discussion of theories and characters.
