In this episode, Gideon finds “her last two living allies” [citation needed] in the Canaan House sickroom, and Palamedes goes out with a bang. Baily then torments Kabriya with another word definitions quiz. We end with a long-awaited discussion of our favourite indoor kids, Pal and Cam!

Uh oh, sisters! In this episode, we’re reconnecting with the world’s most normal twins. Chapter 34 finds us in the Seventh House’s lyctoral lab with Ianthe, Corona, and Babs’ dead body. Ianthe performs her villain monologue, reveals Corona’s “bad, sad, secret,” and commits a little light self-defence killing to follow up her main course of first-degree murder. We then take another Nine Houses sorting quiz and get a bit off topic, and wrap up with a discussion of the theory that Corona may have been Ianthe’s “true” cavalier.

It's so over... We're so back! And we're so excited to begin by sinking our teeth into the short story, "The Unwanted Guest," from the paperback edition of Nona the Ninth. This episode is the first of a two-part discussion—in part one, we recap the events of the short story, featuring our personal faves Ianthe and Palamedes, and in part two (coming soon July 1), we'll get more in-depth about the broader implications of "The Unwanted Guest" for the series as a whole.

It’s been a minute, but we’re diving back into GIDEON THE NINTH! In this episode, we pick up our reread with Chapters 32 and 33, in which Gideon, Harrow, Pal, and Cam team up to explore a new room, Second House tragedies occur, and we find the last key inside Abigail’s corpse. We rated some hilarious descriptions of The Locked Tomb series from Tumblr users who’ve never read the books, and then it was time to talk keys and trials: What are the different trials in Canaan House and which lyctors created them? Which characters in Gideon the Ninth have which keys at which point in the book? And at what point does Harrow learn each step of the lyctoral process? We tried to puzzle it out!

We still have so much more to say about Nona the Ninth! After gushing over two characters we hadn't got to yet—Pyrrha and Pash!—we evaluated how well we did overall in our previous Nona theories episode and discussed the major plot developments and new information gained in this book. We took a fun new Nona quiz, acknowledged a new Kiss Truther scene you may have missed (we certainly did on our first reads!), and yes, if you saw our tweet, this episode also has a Big Goose.

It's another bonus episode all about Nona the Ninth! (Sort of.) This episode is focused on the biggest theories and questions we had going into Nona and was recorded before we read it, so there aren't any spoilers or discussion of events past the excerpts released before publication. Although the book's obviously out now, we decided to resurrect this bonus episode from the dead, if you will, in order to establish what our expectations were going into Nona and give an overview of some of the biggest theories that were out there. Our next bonus episode will follow up on this as we take a look at what we were right and wrong about in Nona—and all the new questions we have.
* SPOILER ALERT * We reference events from Gideon the Ninth and Harrow the Ninth in this podcast, as it’s intended for readers who’ve already finished both books.

Happy Birthday Nona the Ninth!!!!! Please make sure you've finished reading the book before listening to this episode, as it is entirely made of spoilers. We're celebrating this special day with our very first reactions, recorded within 24 hours of reading Nona and having spoken to no one else about the book yet. This is the first Nona reaction episode we're releasing and we decided to focus on the characters—our favourite moments with them and all the emotions we were bursting with by the end of this book.
We'll be releasing another reaction episode soon that's all about the plot—theories that were right or wrong, questions we still have about the series, and so on. (And thoughts on some characters we couldn't fit into this episode! Sorry, Pyrrha!)
Thank you to Tordotcom Publishing for the Nona ARCs which allowed us to get this episode out on Nona the Ninth's birthday!

This episode is about one thing only: THE POOL SCENE. Our best friend Nora joined us to celebrate the iconic Chapter 31 and we had so much fun chatting about everything that goes down in the Canaan House pool—from plot revelations to moments of intimacy we will simply never recover from. (We also have a very important personal agenda to push here and we're trying to convert you all!) Then a discussion we've been eagerly awaiting: Gideon and Harrow and the ROMANCE of it all. Despite the specific focus, this is our longest episode yet so we hope everyone else feels as unhinged about this chapter and scene as we do!
