TRIGGER WARNING: For a brief, ten minute period we discuss suicide and PTSD. We let you know when it's coming up, but we want everyone aware.

This week, we're back in full capacity since Kelsey has recovered! We are bringing you this beautiful masterpiece from Virginia Woolf, Mrs. Dalloway. You will love Kelsey being a full on annoying Aquarius, and Kailin being a sappy Pisces. Mrs. Dalloway is an entertaining stream of consciousness novel that you will love getting lost in.

Welcome to our first ever minisode! This week, Kelsey is recovering so Kailin is taking over and doing Leo Tolstoy's Anna Karenina. This book can be real boring, so I get down to what's really important and give you the scoop on this 800 page behemoth of a novel. I'm talking emotional truths, adultery, and the many confusing Russian names I had to memorize.

Take a look through the soul-encompassing picture frame as we take you on the wild ride that is the life of Dorian Gray. We talk about morality, sexuality, and the way in which Oscar Wilde writes women characters. The biggest question we have is, did Dorian sell his soul to the Devil? Or is he really having a wild trip? Come find out in our newest episode!

Come one, come all, to the final episode in our Halloween Spook-Tacular! We tell you the scariest ghost stories. And, we take a bite out of Victorian novel: Dracula. We follow the Count himself and the Van Helsing gang through an adventure of mythical proportions. We talk about the inherent sensuality of vampires, and how Dracula doesn't even sparkle. Ugh, an Edward Cullen wannabe. As if.
