Hi, fam! I wish we could say we’re back, but we’re not. Apologies for the (mostly) unplanned for hiatus, but life is WILD: Melissa has COVID! So while we have not been able to record an actual episode this week, we did have a quick check-in with each other to say hi. Hi!! We will be back soon, promise. LOVE Y’ALL.

UGH this is the stupid chapter where stupid Jacob kisses Bella even though she makes her feelings PERFECTLY clear, and Edward is the only person who cares about her feelings. At least Bella punches Jacob's stupid smile off his stupid face. Maybe it's all uphill from here???

Hello friends!! Lo, we have returned! In this episode, we discuss the blatant racism inherent in Smeyer's depiction of our wolfy friends and making up false origin stories about the Quileute Tribe. Also we get deep into a debate over whether or not vampires can be injured. Here's a few places to start your own research about the Quileute Tribe and their legends: https://quileutenation.org/history/ https://www.burkemuseum.org/static/truth_vs_twilight/quileutes.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v...

LOL WHOOPS, didn’t post this episode yesterday (Saturday) for no good reason other than all three of us literally just FORGOT. But never late than better as we always say! And in this episode we discuss chapter three of Eclipse. Guess what, fam. The gaslighting continues. This chapter really makes us ponder the important things: Is a gaslighter a worse gaslighter if he KNOWS he’s gaslighting? Or do we prefer our gaslighters to be ignorant of their gaslighting ways? SMeyer asks the tough question...

LET’S GO. In this first episode of season ~FOUR~ (?? how), we finally get to read the first chapter of Eclipse!
