  • Summary

  • In our Halloween special 🎃, Alicia and Emilie dive into the world of A Witch for Mr. Darcy by Jessica L. Jackson, a supernatural twist on our beloved Pride and Prejudice. It’s safe to say… opinions were mixed. Alicia enjoyed the spooky vibes and the fresh focus on side characters (shoutout to Mary!), while Emilie struggled with Elizabeth’s portrayal as an all-capable witch who never stumbles. But this book also got us thinking about something deeper: Mr. Bennet’s tendency to let Elizabeth shoulder way too much responsibility. This “parentification” sparked a real conversation between Alicia and Emilie about the pressures we place on children—and how we're trying to avoid putting too much on our own kids. How much is too much for a child? In true Halloween spirit, we touch on what really gives us the chills in stories. Emilie admits possession (loss of control 😱) keeps her up at night, while Alicia confesses she’s unnerved by books and tv shows that let readers peek into a truly evil mind. Plus, we’re dying to know: are there any Pride and Prejudice meets True Crime podcast crossover retellings out there? Asking for, um… a friend. 👀 ----
