S4 Episode 6 - Openness (Fangirl)

We’re delving into the theme of openness this week - what does it mean to be receptive to new ideas and opinions? How do you invite it and encourage it, even in the face of potential heartache? We also continue to explore how we express and build identity as we unpack chapters 21-24 of Fangirl.

S4 Episode 4 - Heartbreak (Fangirl)

Heartbreak City, Population: Us. This week we read chapters 13-16 through the theme of heartbreak. We also instituted our first MarginaliaPod award: The Art Avery Award for Awesome Parenting (or as Jenn D calls it, the A-Triple-A-P). If you’re a fictional parent who wins this award, you should feel incredibly highly honoured indeed.
If you are a crap parent, then maybe you can join Thranduil (racist party dad) over in the Bad Dad Club.

S4 Episode 2 - Growing up (Fangirl)

Well, I guess this is growing up. Yep that’s our theme this week as we read chapters 5-8 of Fangirl. Cath has a lot on her plate - she’s friends with Reagan now, she’s worried about her dad, she’s kind of sort of fighting with Wren, and her boring boyfriend dumped her! over! the! phone! So, a lot of growing up opportunities to unpack here.
