This week, we wrapped up our deep dive into the Twilight Saga with Stephenie Meyer’s latest addition into the canon, ‘Midnight Sun’! We kick off the episode with Neeta’s very valid crush on Seth Rogen, Gaia’s latest farm endeavor, and some book recommendations! Gaia and Neeta discuss what it felt like to sit inside Edward’s mind for over 600 pages and how Edward’s thoughts about Bella reveal a lot about how Meyer views relationships and womanhood. We do a side-by side-comparison with Bella’s perspective and interrogate why this book makes Bella feel like a Manic Pixie Dream Girl. Neeta gets sad about how they feel they have less access to enjoying this series and we resolve to possibly cover the gender bent ‘Twilight’ book instead! Harris refuses to consume anymore Twilight content, Gaia makes a lot of ‘Lolita’ connections, and so much more, this week on ‘Bitch, Why?’.

Be sure to leave us a review and email us at [email protected] if you have a topic you want us to cover (or just to say hi)! We’ll read them on the pod!
