Ep. 65- Oh. I Should've Seen This Coming. (The Dragon Republic)

Send us a text

We are "blazing through" the discussion of The Poppy War series by R.F. Kuang.  We are already covering part 1 of the second book, The Dragon Republic! We love a problematic but logical character, and also enjoy the back stories we are getting on some of the other characters. But before we get to that; Laura is hooked on a new author after reading the first of their work, and is in love with a walrus that's been making headlines. Hannah is possibly concussed after hitting a wall...literally. She loves what Girls5Eva is doing in season 2, but wishes a couple characters had more screen time. We also learn what is not Hannah's favorite flower.

CW for the discussion on The Dragon Republic: Violence; PTSD; Self-Harm; Racism; Sexual Assault
