A lovely episode discussing two dark fairytale novellas featuring LGBTQ+ characters. We do talk about homophobia and violence in this episode, so heads up on that. These are two quick reads that can gently bring you out of the spookiness of Halloween and into the heartwarming holiday spirit. 

This episode was recorded prior to the horror episode, before Holly read Into the Drowning Deep. So, we discuss that book as if we haven't read it yet because we had not at that time. :)
