S9 Episode 8 - Loyalty (Wayward Son)

Loyalty is such a big topic - and a great way for looking at the way our trio behaves! It's our theme as we read chapters 47-53 of Wayward Son this week.
In this section, Simon is devastated at the thought of losing Baz. He goes out to get a haircut. Baz goes shopping. Penny and Shep try to scry for Agatha. Baz and Lamb meet up for their lunch, and Lamb realizes Baz is completely new to vampirism. Simon, Penny and Shep stage a completely unwanted rescue. 
In case you missed it, we’ve already read the first book in the trilogy, Carry On, and you can listen here.

S9 Episode 7 - Nature (Wayward Son)

We're getting back to nature this week while reading chapters 41-46 of Wayward Son.
In this section, Simon and Baz share several lovely, tender moments. Agatha realises NowNext is just a fancy vampire nest. Once in Vegas, our intrepid heroes and their cheerful guide check into a vampire hotel and go out to find some vampires to learn more about NowNext.

S9 Episode 6 - Heartbreak (Wayward Son)

Everything hurts and we’re dying - that’s right, the theme is heartbreak this week as we read chapters 34-40 of Wayward Son.
In this section, Simon, Baz and Penny encounter a dragon. Shep’s timely intervention is the only thing that gets them out of this jam, so they agree to let him be their guide. They head towards Hoover Dam where Shep’s got a “friend” who can help them out, then decide to head for Vegas, where the vampires all live.

S9 Episode 5 - Curiosity (Wayward Son)

We’re channeling Ted Lasso by being curious and not judgemental this week as we read chapters 28-33 of Wayward Son through the theme of curiousty!
In this section, there’s a nasty fight but our trio manages to escape with Shep’s help. He offers to be their guide but Penny shuts him down repeatedly. They ditch Shep at the first opportunity. While Simon and Baz discuss going home, Penny gets a voicemail from Agatha, who has finally gotten the vibe that NowNext is kind of… a cult. A scary one. And maybe Agatha needs help after all…

S9 Episode 4 - Escape (Wayward Son)

We love escaping into Wayward Son every week, and there’s certainly a lot of escaping happening in chapters 21-27 as well. From feelings, from talking, from reality… good thing it’s our theme this week so we can get stuck in! 
In this section, our faves have some fun exploring the Ren Faire until they find some actual vampires taking advantage of the festival. They immediately swing into action and slay them all. While they make a quick getaway, someone is on their trail. They try to lose their pursuer, but they find themselves in a Quiet Zone, surrounded by weres…
