    Blood Over Bright Haven: How M.L. Wang Redefines Power in Fantasy

    Book Talk for BookTok

    Welcome to Autumn-ish Book Club! In this flash analysis series, we take an academic approach to some of the most talked-about books in Romantasy and fantasy today. With over 13 years of combined academic literary training, we bring a critical lens to fandom favorites while keeping the discussion fun, thought-provoking, and accessible. In this episode, we're discussing Blood Over Bright Haven by M.L. Wang. We explore how Wang deconstructs the idea of power and morality in dark academia fantasy, using her world of magic, empire, and forbidden knowledge to question who deserves to wield control, and at what cost. We analyze how the novel's complex relationship between science and sorcery blurs the line between progress and corruption, and how Wang's morally gray characters challenge traditional Romantasy archetypes. We also unpack the book's themes of institutional rot, ambition, and rebellion, and why Blood Over Bright Haven has become one of the most talked-about fantasy novels of the year. This season, we'll be covering: The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins A Cruel Thirst by Angela Montoya When the Moon Hatched by Sarah A. Parker Where the Shadows Meet by Patrice Caldwell Blood of Hercules by Jasmin Mas Blood Over Bright Haven by M.L. Wang Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard The Jasad Heir by Sara Hashem And when book club wraps up, get ready! Our next full literary analysis will dive into Heir of Fire by Sarah J. Maas. If you're new here, we also have full seasons analyzing A Court of Thorns and Roses, A Court of Mist and Fury, A Court of Wings and Ruin, A Court of Frost and Starlight, House of Earth and Blood, House of Sky and Breath, Throne of Glass, and Crown of Midnight. Go back and check those out to see how we break down metaphors, symbolism, narrative structure, and character arcs through multiple literary lenses. Plus, we're thrilled to announce our newest venture: The Subtext Society Journal—the first of its kind, dedicated to Romance, Romantasy, and fandom with an academic yet accessible voice. We're publishing original essays and thought pieces, and we encourage listeners to submit their own articles for a chance to be featured. If you love Sarah J. Maas, M.L.

    GDP Script/ Top Stories for October 4th Publish Date: October 4th PRE-ROLL: From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Saturday, October 4th and Happy Birthday to Jon Secada I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by Gwinnett KIA Mall of Georgia. Central Gwinnett High teacher earns national award Gwinnett tops national mean score on SAT, but trails most metro neighbors Housing Matters: Rainbow Village breaks ground on expansion All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: Central Gwinnett High teacher earns national award The Health Occupation Students of America (HOSA) just gave Amanda Baker, a health science teacher at Central Gwinnett High, the Goodheart-Wilcox Outstanding Service Award—and honestly, it’s no surprise. For 11 years, Baker’s been the heart and soul of her HOSA chapter. Her chapter’s done it all—blood drives, parade floats, Stop the Bleed certifications, and sending students to Internationals in events like Biomedical Debate. STORY 2: Gwinnett tops national mean score on SAT, but trails most metro neighbors   Gwinnett County Public Schools is celebrating its Class of 2025 SAT scores for beating the national average—1003 compared to 996—but the story’s a bit more complicated. While the district outpaced the nation, it fell short of Georgia’s state average (1029) and ranked seventh among 12 Metro RESA districts. Schools like Decatur City (1181) and Forsyth County (1178) left Gwinnett in the dust. Interim Superintendent Dr. Al Taylor remains optimistic. Bright spots? GSMST (1360) and North Gwinnett (1165). But some schools, like Meadowcreek (836), are struggling. STORY 3: Housing Matters: Rainbow Village breaks ground on expansion  Big things are happening at Rainbow Village. On Sept. 29, they broke ground on a major campus expansion that’ll more than double their capacity to help homeless families—going from 30 transitional apartments to 66. Families who live there get more than just a roof over their heads. They learn how to budget, tackle debt, and save for the future. Utilities and internet? Covered. The $15 million project is 73% funded, but there’s still work to do. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: CITY OF SUGAR HILL STORY 4: Brian Snitker out as Braves' manager, will transition into advisory role After months of speculation, Brian Snitker finally made it official: he’s stepping down as Braves manager after the 2025 season. But don’t worry—he’s not going far. Starting in 2026, he’ll take on an advisory role, marking his 50th year with the organization. At 70, Snitker’s ready for a slower pace—more time with family, fewer road trips. His journey with the Braves started in 1977, thanks to Hank Aaron, who gave him his first coaching job. As the Braves prepare to find their next manager, Snitker’s legacy looms large. From consignment-store bunk beds in the minors to hoisting a championship trophy, he’s seen it all. STORY 5: Buford City Schools names District Teacher of the Year Emily Stewart, Buford Senior Academy’s media specialist, was named the 2025 District Teacher of the Year for Buford City Schools—and honestly, it’s no surprise to anyone who knows her. Stewart, who works with third through fifth graders, has turned the Media Center into something magical. It’s not just a library anymore—it’s a place where kids discover new worlds, take risks as readers, and actually *want* to read. Her Reading Challenge program? A hit. The Genre Café? Genius. Kids sampling books like they’re at a coffee shop? Who wouldn’t love that? But she doesn’t stop there. Stewart organizes school communications, helps teachers with tech, and even runs district-wide events like Books on the Bus, giving free books to families. We’ll be right back. Break 3: LILBURN DAZE STORY 6: Gwinnett Clean & Beautiful names 2025-26 Green Youth Advisory Council class Gwinnett Clean & Beautiful is kicking off another year of shaping young leaders with its Green Youth Advisory Council (GYAC) for 2025-2026. This year’s group? Twenty passionate high schoolers from 12 schools across Gwinnett County, ready to make a difference. New faces include Amari Wilson (South Gwinnett), Maansi Singh (GSMST), and Holly Spake (Brookwood), while returning members like Ananya Desai (Peachtree Ridge) and Brian Le (Brookwood) are back for more. From tackling litter to launching school programs, they’ll serve as advocates, volunteers, and innovators. Oh, and seniors? They’re eligible for a $1,000 scholarship. STORY 7: New store open at Mall of Georgia Johnston & Murphy, the classic American brand that’s been around since, well, 1850, is now open at the Mall of Georgia. You’ll find it upstairs, right across from JCPenney. Known for everything from handcrafted dress shoes to casual sneakers, polished jackets to everyday staples, Johnston & Murphy has this knack for blending timeless style with modern vibes. It’s the kind of place where you can grab a statement shoe *and* a go-to sweater in one trip. The boutique? Sleek, modern, and totally worth a visit. We’ll have closing comments after this Break 4: Ingles Markets 8 Signoff – Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast.

    HEADLINE: Solving the Mystery of Bright Red Dots in the Early Universe GUEST NAME: Dr. Joel LejaSUMMARY: John Batchelor interviews Dr. Joel Leja about "little red dots"—extremely bright, mysteriously common objects discovered in the early universe by the James Webb Space Telescope. These enigmatic red dots appear to be early supermassive black holes, possibly tens of millions of solar masses, revealed by intensely hot gas swirling at tremendous velocities around them. Their unexpected abundance and size so close to the universe's beginning poses a fundamental challenge to current theories of cosmic evolution and black hole formation. The discovery suggests that supermassive black holes formed much earlier and more rapidly than previously thought possible, requiring astronomers to reconsider models of how the first galaxies and their central black holes emerged from the primordial darkness. Dr. Leja explains that while the JWST data strongly indicates these are black holes based on spectroscopic signatures, the mechanism that allowed such massive objects to form so quickly after the Big Bang remains one of astronomy's most perplexing new mysteries. The research highlights how advanced telescopes continue to overturn established assumptions about the early universe's structure and evolution.

    The number one thing I get asked when I share about memorizing the catechism is "Wait... I didn't know you were Catholic." Trying to explain that there are many kinds of catechisms and we use a Protestant one leaves even more questions. That's sad to me because teaching my kids the catechism has become one of the most formative faith practices I've had. Today I'm talking to Leah Nicklaus. She is a fellow mom of only boys who homeschools in the classical/Charlotte Mason method. She has hundreds of gospel-centered book recommendations and resources! I've come to love chatting with her because we share so much in common, including how valuable we find the catechism to be. -How has catechism helped you and your family? -When did you first discover the catechism? How would you define it? -Which catechism do you like best? -How do you include it in other discipleship practices? What does discipleship look like in your family? -Have you found the catechism to help your faith? -What are other family discipleship practices that work for you?

You need this to be happy!” Bright colors, tempting smells, and shiny objects pull at your senses.But in the middle of the chaos, you notice someone you love deeply—someone whose presence brings peace. Their voice is quieter than the others, but it cuts through the noise. You realize you don't need to chase after every distraction because you belong to them.That's what John is showing us: in a world full of competing loves, the one love that matters most helps us put everything else in its rightful place.

    The Train More Nurses Act, which has been introduced in both houses of Congress, represents a positive development to address the dire shortage of nursing faculty, said Patty Knecht, PhD, RN, Chief Nursing Officer, Ascend Learning, and Molly Carpenter, Director of Workforce Strategy and Development, LeadingAge LTSS Center @UMass Boston. It would direct the secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services and the Secretary of Labor to conduct a review of nursing grant programs to find ways to increase faculty at nursing schools, especially those in underserved areas. It also would increase pathways for licensed practical nurses to become registered nurses. The faculty shortage in nursing schools means schools are turning away 80,000 students each year. The nursing shortage is even worse in the long-term care sector because it doesn't have the “street cred” of hospitals. Still, nursing students are gaining more exposure to long-term care and home care in their training.Follow us on social media:X: @McKHomeCareFacebook: McKnight's Home CareLinkedIn: McKnight's Home CareInstagram: mcknights_homecareFollow Ascend Learning on social media:LinkedIn: Ascend LearningFollow LeadingAge LTSS Center @UMass Boston on social media:Facebook: LeadingAge LTSS Center at UMass BostonLinkedIn: LeadingAge LTSS Center @UMass BostonShow contributors:McKnight's Home Care Editor Liza Berger; Patty Knecht, PhD, RN, Chief Nursing Officer, Ascend Learning; and Molly Carpenter, Director of Workforce Strategy and Development, LeadingAge LTSS Center @UMass Boston Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    MDJ Script/ Top Stories for September 24th Publish Date:  September 24th    Commercial: From the BG Ad Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.    Today is Wednesday, September 24th and Happy Birthday to Jim Henson I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal Mableton chemical plant applies for air quality permit for new process area Cobb to consider extending student housing moratorium Man arrested for shooting at victim’s car in Mableton payment dispute All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  BREAK: INGLES 3 STORY 1: Mableton chemical plant applies for air quality permit for new process area  A Mableton chemical plant, Compass Chemical International, wants to expand. They’ve filed for an air quality permit with Georgia’s Environmental Protection Division to add a new process area at their Buckner Road site. The plan? To produce a proprietary lubricant additive—an alkyl phosphite blend (with or without dispersants, if you’re into the details). Mayor Michael Owens struck a balance: “We welcome businesses that invest in Mableton, but safety and clean air come first.” Councilwoman Patricia Auch added, “Permits like this are routine. If they meet the standards, it’s not necessarily harmful.” The permit’s under review. Public comments? Due by Oct. 17. STORY 2: Cobb to consider extending student housing moratorium  The Cobb County Board of Commissioners is gearing up to vote on extending a moratorium on student housing applications—again. If approved, it’ll be another 180 days of “pause” on new developments, pushing the freeze into spring 2026. This isn’t the first time. The ban started in October 2024, got extended in March, and now, here we are. Why? Kennesaw State’s booming enrollment has outpaced housing, and zoning battles have made things messy. Chair Lisa Cupid recently admitted students are struggling. Commissioner Keli Gambrill? Not a fan. “KSU needs to handle this,” she said bluntly. STORY 3: Man arrested for shooting at victim’s car in Mableton payment dispute Cesar Alexis Velazquez, 23, from Douglasville, is facing some serious charges after a heated argument over a cell phone repair turned dangerous. On Aug. 21, around 11:30 p.m., Velazquez allegedly fired two shots at a red 2011 Kia Optima outside a home on Joseph Club Drive in Mableton. The victim, who owns a phone repair business, had run back inside for safety. The dispute? Velazquez refused to pay for fixing a water-damaged phone but still left with it—gun in hand, according to police. He’s now charged with aggravated assault and theft of services. Arrested Sept. 9, he’s being held without bond. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info.  We’ll be right back. Break: INGLES 3 STORY 4: KSU student named Newman Civic Fellow  Kennesaw State senior Deja Boney has a knack for making a difference—and now, she’s a 2025 Newman Civic Fellow. It’s a big deal, a national recognition for students who lead with heart and hustle in their communities. Deja, an information systems major with an IT minor, has been everywhere—organizing cleanups, mentoring through Black Women Empowered, and tackling poverty with Circles Cobb. “It’s humbling,” she said, “to know the work I’m doing is seen beyond campus.” Her journey started with an OwlsServe Day, and now she’s a three-term KSU Service Fellow. Next stop? Chicago in October, connecting with other changemakers. STORY 5: Tickets for An Evening with David Sedaris on sale Oct. 17 Mark your calendars: David Sedaris—yes, the David Sedaris—is coming to Atlanta for one night only. The bestselling author and NPR favorite will take the stage at 7:30 p.m. on May 19 at the Cobb Energy Performing Arts Center (2800 Cobb Galleria Parkway). Fresh off the release of A Carnival of Snackery and Pretty Ugly, Sedaris will share new stories, sharp observations, and probably a few laugh-out-loud moments. There’s also a Q&A and book signing. Tickets drop Oct. 17 at 10 a.m. Don’t wait. This one’s gonna sell out fast. Break: STORY 6: Pageant highlights opening night of North Georgia State Fair  Glitter, gowns, and big smiles lit up the stage at the Miss North Georgia State Fair Pageant, kicking off opening night at Jim Miller Park. Over 40 young ladies, from toddlers to college students, took their turn in the spotlight, each sparkling in their favorite dresses. Six winners were crowned, earning tiaras, banners, flowers, and fair passes—and the chance to serve as community ambassadors, riding in parades throughout the year. The big title, Miss NGSF, went to 19-year-old Lilli Bennett of Calhoun, a UGA freshman who’ll use her $1,000 scholarship toward school. The fair runs through Sept. 28—don’t miss it! STORY 7: Life U. men's rugby unveils new locker rooms Life University’s men’s rugby team had more than one reason to celebrate after their win over Army—they finally got to step into their brand-new locker rooms. On Saturday, the school cut the ribbon on the $75,000 renovation, a much-needed upgrade after 45 years. New floors, fresh lockers, and a space to prep for games—it’s a total transformation, funded by alumni donations and team fundraisers. But it’s more than just a facelift. Outside the locker room, a plaque honors past players who’ve passed away. Current players now touch it before every game—a quiet, powerful tribute. The locker room even features nameplates of alumni donors, a reminder of the legacy each player carries when they pull on that jersey. Founders Bobby Gise and Jim Hovey, now in their 70s, watched with pride as the team walked out with a new sense of confidence. Bright yellow and green, the space is ready for game day—and for the next generation of Running Eagles. We’ll have closing comments after this.

    This week, the Countdown goes visual. Joining me is Richard Beland, concert and music photographer, Hip historian, and all-around good dude from Bright's Grove. Richard's camera has been a witness to some of the most iconic moments in The Hip's career — from sweaty club gigs at Fanshawe Pub, to international festival stages alongside Metallica and Neil Young, to that final August 20th show in Kingston. He's shot Gord, Rob, Paul, Johnny, and Sinclair from every angle, and he's here to share his Hipstory.Richard takes us through his early days sneaking into pubs on a scratched-up license, the serendipitous connections that led him to London and Europe with a camera in hand, and the near-miss that almost kept his work out of the book and the doc. He shares the story behind his most iconic photograph of Gord Downie — the toque shot that's since been tattooed on bodies, blasted on TSN, and memorialized in magazines. And yes, he tells us about the time Rob Baker rode shotgun on a milk crate while the band's own song played on the radio. (Waffle butt confirmed.)From the Grateful Dead to The Hip, from fish-eye lenses to stage risers, from Sudbury snowstorms to late-night alleyway portraits — Richard's journey is a reminder of how music, photography, and fandom intersect to tell stories bigger than any one of us.And then comes the big reveal: Song #4 on the Countdown. It's a track that swells with atmosphere, memory, and melody — one Richard says feels like “warm water filling a cold glass.” It's the song that can soundtrack both a snowy walk into Sudbury Arena and a lazy summer night at the cottage, arm around a friend, eyes to the stars. You know it. You love it. And now, you know where it landed.This episode is loaded with Hip history, fan parallels to the Dead, and stories you've never heard before. And if you want even more, Richard will be joining us live on October 4th at A Celebration of The Hip for ALS at The Rec Room in Toronto, opening the night with a special photo presentation before The Strictly Hip take the stage.Next WeekWe head into the Top 3.

    In this episode of SpaceTime, we dive into groundbreaking discoveries on Mars, the intriguing atmosphere of Makemake, and the awe-inspiring total lunar eclipse that captivated millions.Potential Biosignatures on MarsNASA scientists have revealed that samples collected by the Perseverance rover from Jezero Crater may hold the best chance yet of uncovering evidence of past microbial life. The samples, taken from the rock formation known as Chiava Falls, exhibit characteristics that could indicate potential biosignatures. These findings suggest that Mars may have been habitable for longer than previously thought, challenging earlier assumptions about the planet's history.Atmosphere Discovered on MakemakeIn a remarkable discovery, astronomers have detected indications of a methane gas atmosphere on the distant dwarf planet Makemake. This finding, made using NASA's Webb Space Telescope, suggests the presence of a tenuous atmosphere or possibly cryovolcanic activity. Makemake, which resides in the Kuiper Belt, is now only the second known trans-Neptunian object, after Pluto, to have confirmed gaseous presence, revealing its dynamic nature and potential for active geology.Total Lunar EclipseA stunning total lunar eclipse has mesmerised observers across Australia, Europe, Africa, and Asia. This celestial event transformed the full moon into a blood-red spectacle as Earth's shadow obscured it. The eclipse lasted over five hours, showcasing the beauty of orbital mechanics and providing a thrilling experience for stargazers.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesNaturehttps://www.nature.com/Astrophysical Journal Lettershttps://iopscience.iop.org/journal/2041-8205Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.Potential Biosignatures on MarsAtmosphere Discovered on MakemakeTotal Lunar Eclipse
