Here we are, perfectly in time for spooky season, reading one of the original vampire books. And this time? It’s a chick. Come listen to us talk about the classic vampire novella Carmilla by Irish author Sheridan Le Fanu (NOT a woman), which both inspired and defeated Dracula by 26 years. As an added bonus, it's also a heartwarming father-daughter tale! Kind of!
Jackie is an adult again. Rachel doesn’t step on any toes. Bekah has Polidori energy. Nikita is in France, so you won't hear a dang thing from her.
Topics include: Dad Chat, Family Feud, accidentally gay classics, The Emperor’s New Groove, Kim Kardashian’s legal progress, two enormous nieces, taking the Bysshe, anagram freaks, Carmen Maria Machado, schloss facts, dunking on Byron, and a wonderful poetry story featuring Carl Phillips and Ross White.
