The Crazy Secret Behind My New Book

What is attraction? What is art? What are feelings? What are thoughts? Why is anyone in these books the way they are? At long last, Maggie and Nico discuss the billion-dollar Twilight fanfic FIFTY SHADES OF GREY. Stick around till the end to hear our thoughts on the potential Renesme-Jacob spin-off series, plus some bonus Twilight content. LATERS, BABY!!  

Fifty Shades of Grey

Welcome to the inner workings of the mind of Edward Anthony Mason Cullen. Maggie and Nico are here to probe every nook & cranny of this long-awaited tome, excessively dwelling on the scientific implications of mind-reading, whether love can conquer all in dysfunctional relationships, whether Edward really is an irredeemable creep, and so much more. CORRECTION: Maggie refers to Edward and Carlisle as “East coast elites.” In fact Carlisle is British, and Edward is from Chicago.  

TwiDEEP: Midnight Sun

Tons to discuss in the Twilight saga's bizarre denoument. Nico explains how the visible light spectrum could differ between humans and vampires. We delve further into the Cullens' relationship dynamics, and Maggie explores how Twilight is ~actually~ an allegory for queerness. Plus, Nico finally, totally, completely loses his shit in a way no one (or everyone?) could have predicted.

TwiDEEP: Breaking Dawn pt 2

Teen marriage, vampire abortion, the nitty-gritty of Imprinting– Breaking Dawn goes there, and we have no choice but to follow. Maggie continues comparing Nico to Edward, to Nico's extreme chagrin. Maggie also details her real-life experience as the only girl in an all-male "wolf pack," and how that experience compares to Leah's.
