Fighting Over the Card Catalog

Welcome to Junior High you bingo brains! This week we jump into the Girl Talk series by L.E. Blair.

We get oodles of Fashion Alerts, are introduced to the titular girl talk telephone chapters, learn about Jess's love of rules and fear of Guns N Roses. And is this the episode where Steven actually does reconsider this whole marriage?

Is this whole episode a No Snark Zone? Because it is just full of love for Anastasia and her entire Awesome Family, in Anastasia at Your Service by Lois Lowry.

We've got obscene dog posters, Jess's OTP, and Henry James back from the dead? And a bit thirsty?

Happy Valentine's Day, everybody! And what better way to celebrate the day dedicated to love than with numerous murders! Sit down with a box of chocolates while we discuss R.L. Stine's Fear Street Super Chiller, Broken Hearts.

So many creepy angry boys, and so many times Jess laughs at teenage deaths. Plus what is possibly the best Fear Street murder of them all.

Though this all could have been avoided if ANYONE had read The Saddle Club. But nobody ever listens to Carole, do they?

We say cya to the BSC's most popular sitter this week in Good-bye Stacey, Good-bye by Ann M. Martin.

We talk moving, yard sales, more Jenny hate, & set one of the worst precedents in Stoneybrook. We get another chapter of Ann's fascinating biography, where we have a funeral for flowers. 

Plus more bitching about US politics!

This week we begin a new series, Pen Pals! Boys Wanted! Steven loves it!

We get a whole new group of gals, and this time bringing back the art of letter writing, purely to flirt with boys. 

We talk about first dates, sexist extracurriculars, and the 80's version of catfishing.

Let's traumatize a whole lot of people this week with the sequel to The Face on the Milk Carton, Whatever Happened to Janie? by Caroline B. Cooney, shall we?

It's just...this whole situation is SO MESSED UP, Y'ALL

Plus we wonder: were Swatch watches the Pokemon of accessories? 

And were you looking for a quick civics lesson? We've got you covered!

This week we read the Judy Blume classic Deenie! 

We talk about "lucky" rabbit feet, school start times, and we get the hottest autoimmune disease news with Psoriasis Minute!

And, as she loves to do, Judy gives us just so many opportunities to talk about masturbation. Bless.

YOU. ARE. A. CRUMB.

And that's how you insult a traitorous teenage girl, I guess.

This week we REALLY start getting into the cult-like mentality of the Baby-Sitters Club, in Claudia and the New Girl. How DARE Claudia give more attention to ANYTHING ELSE other than baby-sitting! Ugh!

And though the new girl is very focused herself, she may have also been ahead of her time fashion wise. Oh yeah, SO! MANY! FASHION ALERTS!

Happy Thanksgiving! Happy Birthday to Steven! Happy annoyingly stilted dialogue book day! 

This week we read the Dare Boys of 1776 by S.A.D. Cox. And it's a lot.

Lots of dick jokes!

Lots of strangling!

Lots of Brits running away!

Lots of Hamilton references!
