In Episode 86, Gen and Jette discuss Our Violent Ends, Chloe Gong’s sequel to These Violent Delights. (Listen to that episode here!) This book solidifies it — we’ll officially read everything Chloe Gong writes!
Show Notes
We go off on a few tangents about Shakespeare, retellings, and art history.
Check out this Buzzfeed article for the complete list of teen movies based on classics: “17 Teen Movies That Are Based On Classic Pieces Of Literature.”
We had some fun speculating about who will be the protagonist of Chloe Gong’s spin off duology that begins with Foul Lady Fortune. We’re pretty sure the end of Our Violent Ends offers up some good clues…
Speaking of which, Foul Lady Fortune is slated for release this fall 2022, and Immortal Longings, her adult fantasty retelling of Antony and Cleopatra is due in 2023!
Our next episode we’ll be talking about what counts as reading, featuring audiobooks, graphic novels, and ebooks.
