    817- The Most Humiliating Night of My Life with Author Marian Keyes

    817- The Most Humiliating Night of My Life with Author Marian Keyes

    For over twenty years Marian Keyes has been writing funny, internationally bestselling fiction about modern women in the modern world. Bestselling Author Marian Keyes (Again Rachel, Grown Ups, Under The Duvet) was invited to a swanky party in London for a style magazine. The theme was "Come as a Joan," so Marian designed an elaborate Joan of Arc costume and was the best dressed Joan at the party. But unfortunately, she was the only Joan there.

    Francisco X. Stork

    Leslie and Mara interview celebrated young adult fiction author, Francisco X. Stork. Francisco has a very interesting backstory as a young immigrant from Mexico and overcoming many obstacles to attend both Harvard University and Columbia Law School. Although Francisco worked many years as a lawyer, it was his true passion of writing that led him to success as an author of nine young adult novels. We are so excited to share this genuine conversation.

    BONUS EPISODE - Horror From The High Dive!

    BONUS EPISODE - Horror From The High Dive!

    This is a BONUS EPISODE of this The Vampire Diaries related podcast.

    Usually Pete and Ash discuss an episode of The Vampire Diaries in great detail, Pete's never seen the show and Ash is a superfan. But this week Pete talks about a NEW project: Horror From The High Dive, a horror anthology from High Dive Publishing. 

    Here’s the pitch for the book:
    A zombie outbreak at a community pool…
    A terrible secret at a school for children who can’t sleep…
    An actress who will do anything for fame…
    And more!

    High Dive Publishing presents 12 spine tingling stories and 1 spooky poem to make you shiver in your board shorts. These tales are scary enough to frighten you in broad daylight while you watch the surf from your beach chair, or late at night when you’re nursing that sunburn. 13 writers have come together to create an anthology scarier than climbing the ladder to dive off the high diving board.
    Welcome to Horror From The High Dive!

    Here's a link to the crowdfunding campaign (ongoing until October 31, 2020): https://igg.me/at/HorrorFromTheHighDive/x/188808#/

    The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1

    The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1

    Today we talk about half a movie! The great Hollywood experiment of splitting a movie in to two part is a complete failure this time. We also jump on the sidelines to talk about our Honeymoon, Alien: Covenant, and the upcoming Gladiator 2 (no you did not read that incorrectly, GLADIATOR 2).

    Little Women by Louisa May Alcott

    Little Women by Louisa May Alcott
    Should you read the book before watching the movie? It's a question readers struggle with because there's probably a TBR pile staring at them...judging them for even thinking about putting another book at the front of the line. Jessica uses all her persuasive skills to convince Kendra to pick up the book before she suns off to the movies to watch it. Will Kendra listen? Or will Jessica prevail... Who will be victorious?

    Episode 10: Young Boy Meets His Hero, and Isn't Dissapointed

    Episode 10: Young Boy Meets His Hero, and Isn't Dissapointed

    This week we're discussing "The Book of Three" by Lloyd Alexander! This book series is a house favorite --Jessicca was especially excited to talk about it. The audio on this one may be a bit wonky, it seems that it went through a bit of corruption (much like the Horned King!). Give us a listen, and reach out on social media for any questions or if you want to further the conversation! 

     

    Episode 6: Seventeen Year Old Girl Lives in a Society

    Episode 6: Seventeen Year Old Girl Lives in a Society

    This books surprised us a little. This episode is worth a listen!
