Brenna and Joe get a head start on the new year with a slightly tweaked weekly format.

This week we're talking about Karen Cushman's award-winning novel Catherine, Called Birdy (1994) about a headstrong 14 year old Lady in the Middle Ages who refuses to marry.

Plus: the pros and cons of using diary entries as a narrative structure, eel pies, and plenty of women's issues
