Show Notes

Sliding in a bit late, but we're still kicking. This episode we discuss the frankly delightful story of Lara Jean and her journey to find love off the pages of letters and romance novels alike. Talking Points: the state of modern romance; the neverending question of if genre readers need to be challenged; gender bending expectations of emotionally blindness; the importance of letting people live in their own stories; if we want to experience the joys of life, we must submit ourselves to the terror of being seen; our emphatic support of the fake-dating subgenre; and, hey, you're a sexy little Rubik's cube.
