Spoil Me

Thank you so much to Melanie for commissioning this episode! Wow so there goes a twist I did NOT see coming. I mean, I just assumed that Carolyn was kind of bad at her job, and maybe letting her pussy get in the way of her good sense...but it seems like shit's a lot more sinister than that. Meanwhile, there's a fairly emotional scene between Villanelle and Constantine, and while it can be hard for...

Thank you very much to Yama for commissioning this episode! So this book is striking into some new territory, namely the connection between our main peeps and adult wizards. I'm pretty into it, actually, despite the fact that not all that much has happened yet. I just like knowing that there are others out there, who know what's going on (kind of) and are on the case. Maybe that's my often-misplac...

Thank you so much to Melanie for commissioning this episode! So this episode is really touching a nerve for me this week, because I have just about had it with rich people being fucking horrible. As much as I want to just be cool and happy for Pacifica at the end, I'm still not convinced. Also, I love Grenda. Thanks for listening! See you soon with a live-watch!

Thank you so much to Yama for commissioning this episode! So DAMN Y'ALL! Shit really went fucking LEFT! I feel like this is probably the most major death we've seen on-page, right? Like, we see Sabriel's dad die, but he just goes into Death and it's not nearly this traumatic, if I remember correctly. Then of course there's the fakeout of Sabriel herself and Touchstone, which doesn't count, and...w...

Thank you very much to Martin for commissioning this episode! So this book is really starting off with a bang. There's something hiding in the caverns underneath the Abbey, in the very Rock Of Faith, and I'm wondering if it's the same something that seems to inhabit the Black Ice. I can't tell if I'm connecting dots I shouldn't be, or if there's something there. Meanwhile, there's a whole thing wi...

Thank you so much to Khai for commissioning this episode! Holy shit, so much happened in this one, y'all! I don't even know where to start except to say that Villanelle is weirdly naive for someone who murders for a living. The fact that she didn't see this shit coming is hugely irritating but it also tells us a LOT about who she is. Then there's the whole thing with Carolyn. What the fuck is her...

Thank you very much to Melanie for commissioning this episode! So this is probably the hardest I have ever laughed while watching Gravity Falls. This episode is genius and I'm in love with it. This episode, Mabel decides that she's going to mess with Robbie and Tambry's love lives, and when it results in the breakdown of the whole friendsgroup, she wants to undo it. But it might be too late! And G...

Thanks so much to Yama for commissioning this episode! I'm so very into this book, and this chapter in particular was a huge surprise that's got me thinking about some possibilities now. I'm absolutely dying to know wtf is going to happen with Clariel because she's on the knife's edge right now, and has found out she's got abilities that she didn't know about...and maybe that even those who DID kn...

Thank you so much to Melanie for commissioning this episode! I'm here to tell you that this episode made me too emotional and I'm mad about it. But, aw Soos. You sweet sweet boy. Also, Mabel and Dipper are good eggs.

Thank you so much to Tony for commissioning this extra-long, extra-intense episode! It's a doozy, so strap on in. I'm leaving it at that. Thank you all so much for taking me on this journey.

Thank you so much to Tristen for commissioning this episode! I'm really impressed with this book so far. I've liked all the other ones a lot, and I get the feeling that if we went back and listened. to all the other beginning episodes I probably said the same thing, but I MEAN IT! Thanks so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

Thank you to Yama for commissioning this episode! This book is getting into some time-travel stuff and I'm super interested because I'm covering so many different properties that deal with time travel, and all in totally different ways. I'm really interested in seeing what it's like in this book! Also I'm weirdly proud of Nita for making friends in Bray in these chapters. I confess that I was a li...

Thank you again to D'Nique so much for commissioning this entire book. I really appreciate you coming back so that I could finish it, and I wonder what a third book would have been like. I went into this final section with no real idea how the book could end and still be satisfying. And the truth is, there is plenty about it that isn't satisfying because it's not meant to be. I'm really kind of st...

Thank you so much to Yama for commissioning this episode! So I think I've already said how into this book I am, but I want to reiterate how much I love Garth Nix's worldbuilding and how much I wish we'd gotten more of this before getting into the epic struggles of some of the prior books. I still loved those books, so it's not like they suffered terribly, but I think they could have made so much m...

Thank you so much to Martin for commissioning this episode! I'm so excited about this weird fucking book, y'all. I never expected for it to open the way it did, and for Nona to now be...infested? Is that the right word? She's not quite possessed, because she still mostly has control. But lordy it's creepy and kind of hilarious? I'm a really big fan also of getting to see through Apple's perspectiv...

Thank you so much to D'Nique for commissioning this episode! Y'all, this book is over in one more episode, and I'm absolutely floored that it's coming to an end because I have no idea where we go from here. Marc is the worst, I hate him and the way he reacts to everything simply because he doesn't want to lose something. Like, yes he's suffered a horrific trauma, but guess what, SO HAS EVERYONE. G...

Thank you so much to D'Nique for commissioning this episode! I am so relieved, y'all. I mean, I can't tell you how fucked up I was by that last section, and while this one was arguably worse in terms of overall disturbing content, I at least got the relief of an escape at the end of it all. I just couldn't imagine putting down this book again with the knowledge that the next time I picked it up, e...

Thank you so much to D'Nique for commissioning this episode! This section is so rough, y'all. Oof. That's it. That's the post.

Thank you so much to Melanie for commissioning this episode! From here on out, Melanie wants me to cover these episodes one at a time...and I'm gonna take that as an indicator that shit is really about to pop off. It sure seems that way from this episode! We're beginning to get a look at some of the secrets of Gravity Falls, and it turns out that a lot more people around here are aware of weird sh...

Thank you again so much to D'Nique for commissioning this episode! Well, we're finally into the section of the book I had not yet read, and unexpectedly, Olamina is reunited with one of her family whom she had long thought to be dead. I feel really bad because Marc has really been put through it, but he's really so insufferable here. Oof, he gets on my NERVES. But yeah, the people that she bought...

Thank you very much to Yama for commissioning this episode and getting me started on the next book! I'm really REALLY into this all so far. I feel like I'm finally getting a more detailed look at the world Garth Nix has created, and I don't think I had really realized how much I wanted this. I am fascinated by the ways of life we see in these books and how different they are from one another, and...

Thank you very much to Ashleigh for commissioning this episode! I'm glad to be getting back into this world at last, and I'm surprised at how touched I was to see Sonea and Regin on the same side after all that went down between them. I just really like to see people actually learning from their mistakes and regretting their bad behavior, you know? It's a shame that his daughters seem to be kinda...

Thank you so much to D'Nique for commissioning this episode! This is the last of the redo sections, and after this one we will be getting into new territory. I'm honestly a little worried about it. I hate the world that this is set in, and I'm really imagining some horrific shit could be coming. Everything is too idyllic right now, and Acorn is growing a little too prosperous to continue flying un...

Thank you very much to Denise for once again commissioning a voyeur-level episode so that I can yammer on for a half hour longer. because shit just got very very real. So it turns out that things are in many ways worse than I had suspected, although there's at least the mercy of painlessness. The stone people are kept around to make the propoganda about this other lost civilization seem true, but...

Thanks so much to Megan for commissioning this episode, as well as commissioning the voyeur live-watch of it! I'm blown away at all the twists and turns this episode. Omg but it's a rollercoaster, and I'm in love with the way the show gets us to feel the same confusion and whiplash that Josh feels when he's first told that Rebecca is pregnant and then told that she's not. Then, to top it off we ge...
