Description

Felicity King in The Golden Road inspired today’s episode about unlikeable girls in L.M. Montgomery’s fiction. We talk about what makes these girls and young women challenging, why we often end up liking them anyway, and what we think Montgomery was doing by including depictions of girlhood that break the mold. 


Inspired by:


Kelly is inspired by the podcast Novel Pairings and their current read along of Emma, by Jane Austen.


Ragon is inspired by the new musical Clueless currently on the West End in London.  But if you can’t get there, you should rewatch the 90’s classic Clueless the movie.
