We review Virginia Woolf's 1929 lecture. We go on various rants (some unrelated) as we acknowledge society is attempting to have women's rights careening back to the roaring 20's. Disclaimer: We are not kind to the patriarchy on this one. Swifties beware too.

A French classic written by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. We've read this book a good few times. The Little Prince always reminds us that if you act like an adult all the time it will break your spirit. Don't let fun, imagination, love, and whimsy die! It's not too late. Listen to this episode and read the book before it is! Pay close attention to the Fox. She's mad wise. Also, did y'all ruin Halloween for kids???

We may have been a bit quick to judge in our episode on The Lottery. Shirley Jackson did her thing here. Is it a spooky haunted house? Or does Eleanor have a mental illness and the Dudley's are playing games? Could it all be the work or ghosts?

We're baaaack!!!! How much more modern classic do you get than Michael Crichton and these damn dinosaurs?

Yet another old white man is given too much power/money. It just some how always goes wrong. Hop on the jeep with us to explore Jurassic hell. We won't be mad if you throw Lex to the raptors, even if she is a child.

As penance for our way longer than advised hiatus, Andria Carved the pumpkin in the cover art

Where Hawthorne gave us too much information we didn't want, Shirley Jackson is being vague af. A banger in the 1940's we guess. Listen to us tell the tale of a confusing ritual and sooo many names. What's with that rock Mrs. Delacroix?

A short story by Alice Walker. She kept it light for us this time. Dee drops in after 6 years trying memorialize a culture she's always hated. Maggie's trying to live the culture. Mama's just trying to get through this visit.

Another Toni Morrison classic. Published in 1970. A series of small stories builds up to one young girl's brutal existence. We switched up the style on this one due to Toni traumatizing us.

Written by Zora Neale Hurston, 1937: The men in Janie's life are both her salvation and her destruction. The girl also has haters her entire life, because she's hot. Janie's literally just trying to live and be happy. Catch some black history facts on this one too!
