In this episode, Circe and Odysseus get super cozy, but alas, their time draws to a close. She must help him on one more quest before they part for good, but is he really gone forever? A piece of those you love always stays with you, after all.

Some WIPS have turned into FOs and our Hawthorne tanks are still stitching up. We. Can. Do. It!!

We are on break this week for yet another major holiday. We do miss you, we promise! We will be back on 12/31. See you soon, and be sure to enjoy lots of great stitching and reading in the meantime.

In this episode, Circe welcomes unexpected visitors. Many of them, in fact. Some welcome, most not, and let’s just say she really flexes her witchcraft a LOT. Just when we think our girl may be losing touch with herself, one last visitor appears. He’s kind of a big deal.

The countdown of episodes has begun, along with the time left for our Hawthorne stitchalong. Can we do it!?

We are pausing for the Thanksgiving holiday, but we will be back next week. In the meantime, head to readitandwip.com to join us on Discord!

In this episode, Circe and Daedalus (aka “Daedy”) make it to Crete to find a pregnant Pasiphae in need of some birthing assistance with her…baby? Sure, we will call it a baby. Join us for the labyrinth-like twists and turns of chapters 10-12.

On the stitch-front, we take a breather from the Hawthorne Tank and share some other fun WIPs!

In this episode, we get familiar with the island, Aiaia, alongside Circe as she explores and experiments with herbs and finds her familiar. An unexpected visitor arrives and things get steamy, then Circe embarks on a dangerous journey (dun dun dunnn!).

After the book talk, we find out how far along Julia and AJ have gotten with their Hawthorne Tanks - Have they caught up to Katie? Listen and find out!

In this episode, Circe has a close encounter with, bum bum bummmm - a human! Then, we hop on the wild roller coaster of love. We discuss the ups, the downs, the transformation into a god. You know, normal stuff. It’s all going well as Circe discovers her powers, until she takes things a bit too far.

Plus, AJ, Julia and Katie share some other WIPS that are on their hooks and needles!

Who is Circe? What sets her apart from other gods and immortals? Join us as we embark on our literary adventure to learn all about who the infamous enchantress was before her legendary encounter with Odysseus and beyond.

In this episode, we discuss Chapters 1-3, exploring who Circe’s family is, how Prometheus lit a fire that fueled her curiosity towards humans (pun intended), and how her love for a brother shapes her sense of self.

Read along and stitch along as we cast on our Hawthorne Tanks!
