Oh look, a book that I actually love! For this week's episode, I (re-)read Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor. It's no secret that my favorite book genre is Young Adult Fantasy and this book is one that I think is the best that this genre has to offer. Why? Because the story is wonderful and magical, the writing is lyrical and beautiful. It quite literally slays.Let me fangirl for a minute (or thirty). IG: @roa_podcast

Happy Friday! The world has turned upside down. Thankfully for us here at BLB, and for most of our listeners, books are a comfort. Unplugging from reality and getting lost in a story can deter your attention from everything that’s been going on. In today’s shorter episode, Yuli and Sam chat about Escapes in Literature. To match the world being upside down, we start off this episode backward with Besides Books. Next, we dive into each of our top escape books for when you are stuck at home. These are stories of nerve and endurance that continue to captivate readers. We might even read an entertaining excerpt to help suck you into a story! After intermission, we have a few quizzes to help us figure out what to read next. Make sure to check out Books Spotted, as sadly this will be our last one for a little while. Library's and stores are closed and you can’t get to a book? Check out your library’s website and see what the options are for digital copies or audiobooks Stay healthy, stay informed, and stay kind!

We'll be playing a modified version of AD&D 2e so hang on tight because we're kind of adjusting as we go. Follow us on twitter @casualdungeon and find us on our blog Dungeoncasual.blogspot.com where we'll be discussing more about the mechanics and our methods. This is the only episode that we were not using Fantasy Grounds so expect the flow to get better. Thanks for listening! Buh Bye! Audio Credits!

Because of some major technical difficulties, you can expect this episode to be less well-edited: sound levels are not fully set, and we meander far more than Nathan generally allows. BUT, we do have an in-depth discussion of Laini Taylor's Strange The Dreamer, complete with wildly divergent opinions, (srsly, though, we love you Laini Taylor, come on the show!), We discuss the concept of crafting read-a-likes today and during this informal discussion, Lindsey suggests I Am The Messenger by Markus Zusak, and Nate suggests Challenger Deep by Neal Shusterman. Additionally, Lindsey suggests Bitter Blue by Kristin Cashore and the Netflix series Jessica Jones. Cash Money suggests The Passion of Dolssa by Julie Berry and Scythe by Neal Shusterman. Amy seconds Scythe. Kim suggests Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor and Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo. Nathan suggests the 1985 feature film Ladyhawke and the anime series Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood (you should also read the manga by Hiromu Arakawa). Nate suggests The Darkest Part of the Forest by Holly Black and Shadow Shaper by Daniel José Older. There is also a lot of discussion of the book And I Darken by Kiersten White: our sort of perennially favorite divisive title.

Tizerkane! We review and discuss "Strange the Dreamer" by Laini Taylor.
This week on the MashReads Podcast, MashReads' Aliza chats with Laini Taylor about her upcoming book Strange The Dreamer.
As a girl, Laini Taylor wanted to be a writer. She would dream up magical worlds filled with witches and monsters. But once she got into high school and college, she started reading literature — all those serious books about the real world that serious people read. And she stopped writing.“I had no life experience,” she laughs. “And really nothing to say. I felt a lack of ability to contribute to that body of work.”Then years later, she read a little book you might've heard of. Harry Potter? And her childhood imagination rose up like a phoenix.“That whole ‘write what you know,' you don't have to do that,” she says. “I find it much more fun to imagine what I don't know and want to figure it out.”Since then, Taylor has imagined stories to incredible success. Her early collaboration with her husband, the illustrator Jim Di Bartolo, “Lips Touch,” was a finalist for the National Book Award, and her “Daughter of Smoke and Bone” trilogy is an international best seller.We sat down with Taylor at her Portland home. It's sunny and bright and filled with wonder: paintings of her characters, small figurines of magical creature, princess dresses for her daughter Clementine Pie, and a library with a grand fireplace and floor-to-ceiling book shelves that seems right out of a fairy tale. Which is fitting: Taylor launched a new series this week about a young librarian who also has big dreams, “Strange the Dreamer.”Taylor will read from the book and talk with Sara Grundell of the YA website Novel Novice at Powell's at Cedar Hills Crossing on Apr. 6.
