This week we discuss Girl, Serpent, Thorn, as I recover from a gnarly bout of allergies and finally have my voice back! This one is cool and interesting, and we talk about power imbalances, and why if you advertise a book about a girl with a curse, you should make sure the curse is a big part of the story.
