What Wild Women Do by Karma Brown
Join us for our January Buddy Read: Stone Blind by Natalie Haynes
They will fear you and flee you and call you a monster.
The only mortal in a family of gods, Medusa is the youngest of the Gorgon sisters. Unlike her siblings, Medusa grows older, experiences change, and feels weakness. Her mortal lifespan gives her an urgency that her family will never know.When the sea god Poseidon assaults Medusa in Athene's temple, the goddess is enraged. Furious by the violation of her sacred space, Athene takes revenge--on the young woman. Punished for Poseidon's actions, Medusa is forever transformed. Writhing snakes replace her hair and her gaze will turn any living creature to stone. Cursed with the power to destroy all she loves with one look, Medusa condemns herself to a life of solitude. That is, until Perseus embarks upon a fateful quest to fetch the head of a Gorgon...
In Stone Blind, classicist and comedian Natalie Haynes turns our understanding of this legendary myth on its head, bringing empathy and nuance to one of the earliest stories in which a woman--injured by a powerful man--is blamed, punished, and monstered for the assault. Delving into the origins of this mythic tale, Haynes revitalizes and reconstructs Medusa's story with her passion and fierce wit, offering a timely retelling of this classic myth that speaks to us today.

Episode 21: Buddy Read - Her Majesty's Royal Coven by Juno Dawson Join Lindsey and Renee while they talk about quail eggs, winter hikes in the snow, and the witchy book of the century, Her Majesty’s Royal Coven by Juno Dawson.
Summary: Her Majesty’s Royal Coven is a secret department of witches dedicated to protecting the world from supernatural threats. Five best friends are at the center of the impending war, no matter how much they try to avoid it. They’ve known each other since childhood, and their lives are intertwined in ways mortals can’t imagine. Niamh, the sweet cottage core garden witch that holds the group together, Helena, the power hungry High Priestess of the HMRC, Elle, the instagram mom whose husband and kids still don’t know she’s a witch, and Leonie, the only person of color in their circle. Leonie has her own coven in London dedicated to giving a voice to marginalized witches.There are whispered rumors throughout the coven of a prophecy that brings the end of times, and the oracles confirm everyone’s greatest fear: Leviathan will rise again.
This is a story about witches, sure. But it’s also a story about modern dating, ancient profphies, sacred sisterhood and demonic frenemies.
It’s like, if Sex and the City, Gilmore Girls, and Charmed had a baby.
