SPOILER WARNING OF THE ENTIRETY OF THE SONG OF ACHILLES BY MADELINE MILLER

CONTENT WARNING:

This episode discusses topics of murder, war, and other violent imagery. Please check the content warnings on these books before reading them so you are aware of other things included that we didn't explicitly discuss.

Maggie and Jillian commiserate about their experience reading The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller. They cried because those boys were so sweet, they cried because that war was so brutal, and they cried in the face of the unending march toward a fate that our hero's could not avoid. The pain of being doomed by the narrative is truly like no other. And to think Maggie finished this book ON A CROSS COUNTRY FLIGHT. F.

We hope you enjoyed this book as much as we did but if you didn't DON'T TELL US WE ARE NOT YET IN THE EMOTIONAL SPACE FOR CRITICISM.

Maggie brings the true Romantasy with a BAD BITCH FMC, Ledge by Stacy McEwan, while Jillian brings the cozy storybook manga with girls just being girls, Witch Hat Atelier by Kamome Shirahama.

The MILFs discuss their chill Mother’s Day, how you make the most fun of the things you really love, anime food is the most delicious, and once again the male parasite continues to make Maggie’s brain not work.
