On this week's episode Paige, Maribeth, and friend/sister of the pod Aimee discuss the book The Last Night at the Telegraph club by Malinda Lo. As these convos normally go, there’s a lot of discussion about queerness, tv cancellations (RIP First Kill), ice cream people of the world, and whether or not Maribeth could be a cult leader.

This week Paige and MB discuss fandoms, family memories, and Gill Hornby’s fan fiction about Jane Austen-Miss Austen. Be sure to leave your favorite Austen or Austin, Stone Cold related memory in the comments @offthepaigewithmb.

***Trigger Warning: Child and adult physical and sexual abuse***

In this episode, Paige, Maribeth, and Leah discuss the novel It Ends with Us by Colleen Hoover. This book has taken the internet by storm and has proved to polarize its readers, with some singing its praises and others saying that it didn't flesh out its heavy content thoroughly enough. Just as with the population at large, one of the Off the Paige podcast hosts loved the book while another was not impressed. Listen to find out where the ladies fell in their reading and be sure to leave a comment with your take on our Instagram, @offthepaigewithmb.
