This week, Emily tells us about heart-breaking A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara, while Rebecca talks about a dark and light academia story in The Ophelia Girls by Jane Healey. We discuss when we started calling ourselves writers, learn the meanings of flowers, and we share some awful literary pick-up lines. Rebecca also reads out a poem which embodies the Infatuated energy!
