They’ve made it to Episode 4! This week, Cat and Ali wax lyrical over Nevernight (Jay Kristoff) and tackle some of life’s greatest mysteries - what are two book series called (duologies, not two-part trilogies, apparently), why don’t we have assassin schools IRL, and what makes us love an anti-heroine(/hero) so much? Tune in for the great penis/knife debate of 2018 and a leading-lady-heavy round of Baewatch. Expect occasional flashes of intellect, extreme fangirling over fictional crushes, some strong book recommendations for Steve (resident FBI Agent with the unfortunate task of listening in to their calls), and some unrepentant book nerding. If you enjoyed the show, go ahead and make their day - give them a review on iTunes!
