In Episode 142, Gen and Jette discuss their latest book club selection, Her Majesty’s Royal Coven by Juno Dawson. Obviously we loved the witchy vibes and the stellar queer rep, but also the end of this book had us screaming. Yes, it ends on a cliffhanger!
Show Notes
We haven’t done a book quite like this one before! Obviously we’ve done witchy books in the past, but not one that was so action-packed and full of such cool world building.
Spoilers abound! Especially by the end. We need to read the next book immediately and may have borrowed it on Libby while we were recording lol
If you loved the series about a certain boy wizard about which we no longer speak, but find that author loathsome, this book is exactly the grown-up, queer positive version you’re looking for.
Our next book club selection is Gen’s pick and we’ll be reading Starling House by Alix E. Harrow. It has some gothic haunted house vibes that sound amazing.
Next episode is a hangout episode to catch you up on everything we’ve been reading, writing, etc. and there’s a high chance we’ll end up talking about the sequel to HRMC.
