Raven goes to Hipsterville to find her "gothic prince" while she's visiting her Aunt Libby, her cool hipster-aunt that Raven makes fun of for having alt fashion...the hypocrisy is lost on her. She visits "The Coffin Club", a nightclub that totally doesn't have vampires why do you ask? While there, she meets the mysterious Jagger who is also totally not a vampire, just because he keeps rambling about darkness and eternity and we can't see his reflection pffffftBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bad-book-bash--5889791/support.

Quick recap: Raven Madison is a goth girl in the town of "Dullsville", who claims she doesn't fit in because the rest of the town is too preppy, but in reality it's because she's a judgmental pick-me. She meets Alexander Sterling, the only other goth she's ever met so they immediately fall in love. Everyone in town, including Raven, thinks Alexander is a vampire, until he proves to them he's just a regular kid who likes Hot "Gothic". But then it turns out he actually IS a vampire!!In VK2: "Kissing Coffins", we start off with Raven hanging out with her friend Becky, and getting annoyed that Becky isn't a push-over like she was in the last book. Alexander mysteriously disappeared into the night, so Raven has made it her mission to find her "true love". This whole series is basically an advertisement for Hot TopicBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bad-book-bash--5889791/support.

Salvio and Molly get married despite her miscarriage, because he tells her that she's still fertile enough to give him kids. He doesn't want an equal partner, he essentially wants a baby-making sex slave, and poor Molly goes along with it because he also agreed to pay her brother's debts. The entire struggle of their relationship is Molly trying to convince Salvio that she deserves to be seen as an equal, and eventually he does; but that's something that should have been given to her by default from the very beginning!!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bad-book-bash--5889791/support.

Salvio claims he can smell if a woman is on her period....? Also he proposes to Molly, telling her he is only proposing because she is agreeable, beddable, and pregnant, then he's confused when she's sad at how fucked up his proposal is. Keego and Alex talk about how Salvio is turning into a literally dickBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bad-book-bash--5889791/support.

Molly confesses to Salvio that she is pregnant; he accuses her of tricking him into impregnanting her for his money...even though he was the one who seduced her, brought the condoms, and offered her a job. He also accused her of lying and saying it was someone else's baby; despite knowing that they only had sex a week ago (how did she even know she was pregnant within 7 days??) and that she was a virgin before him. Then he's so mad he sleeps with her again. This is why we hate billionaires.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bad-book-bash--5889791/support.

Molly takes up Salvio's offer for a new job, since Lady Avery fired her out of jealousy. Salvio thinks Molly is a stalker for this, even though he knows she has nowhere to go and he's half the reason she was fired. Molly also finds out that she is pregnant, despite the mini mountain of condoms she and Salvio burned through and it only being a week since they hooked up.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bad-book-bash--5889791/support.

Molly has to prepare dinner for the Averys and Salvio, but she gets distracted by her own horniness and ruins the whole dinner. Later, she joins Salvio in his room for a nightcap, where, despite being a complete virgin, she turns out to be a master at sex because of course she is. All female characters written in these sorts of books are basically sexual Mary-Sues. Keego explains to the audience the story of the Amsterdam-dad-glory-hole story, and Alex talks about his love-hate relationship with Chelsea; the sports team, not a woman.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bad-book-bash--5889791/support.

We have a Christmas special for Bad Book Bash! Join Keego, Alex Byrne, and Betsy as we review “The Italian’s Christmas Housekeeper”. This book was picked because of the hilarious description on the back, starting with this line:“Shy Housekeeper Molly Miller always tries her best.”Molly is an English maid who meets Italian billionaire Salvio De Gennaro, who has only two personality traits: being rich and being from Naples. Him and Molly fall for each other through a story cascade featuring emotional abuse, gaslighting, manipulation, and body shaming.If you want to hear a heartwarming Christmas romance, this is not the book for you. This book will make you want to throw yourself into the yuletide fire. But hey I’m sure it’s better than whatever family bullshit you’ve got going on this year, so give it a listen anyways 🙂Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bad-book-bash--5889791/support.

Paulelica faces more stressors at work, such as human discrimination and sexual harassment, but luckily she deals with it by getting wasted in the middle of the day. Lucien, like all vampires we've encountered in this podcast, insists on acting like he's 15 instead of 15-hundred. Paul gets upset that so many CEOs are trying to buy female interns (not hire), and also thinks Snape is sexy. We also spend all of our money trying to compliment Lucien but it's still not good enough.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bad-book-bash--5889791/support.

We learn more about our character's backstory, like how she knows about the supernatural world because her mom was bitten by a WEREBADGER?? Paul thinks Lucian is the ideal sigma male, and Betsy tells her fiance how she fancies Robin Hood, the cartoon fox version. Our character (Paulelica) also has to take "samples" from her vampire client Lucian, and it's as cringe as you think it is.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bad-book-bash--5889791/support.

NEW PODCAST SERIES ALERT!! Listen in as we do a gameplay of the infamous, interactive story app “Chapters”. In this app, you play a character; usually a young, busty woman, and make decisions for her as she navigates her creepy, supernatural romance plotline. Our “Chapters” gameplay has all of the cringe, ghoulish plotlines as our regular YA novels, but way more consent because this time, WE’RE in charge! Even better, I waste my money on in-game purchases so you don’t have toBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bad-book-bash--5889791/support.

We've reached the end of our journey with Raven Madison and Alexander Sterling! They get ready to go to the school "Snow Ball" together; a dance where everyone is supposed to wear white but the two goth teenagers show up wearing all black because dressing differently is the only way they know how to rebel. At the dance, drama ensues involving Trevor and Becky. And at the very end of the book, we finally find out if Alexander is a vampire or not. Also Ren is still angry that in real life, nobody wants to bang the goth chickBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bad-book-bash--5889791/support.

The Sterling family continues to drop major hints that they're vampires, not at all trying to maintain secrecy in this tiny, boring suburban town. Raven also continues to commit more crimes, such as breaking and entering into the totally-not-a-vampire-family house in order to get to know the guy she has a crush on. I mean it wouldn't be a YA book if there wasn't some sort of stalking, right?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bad-book-bash--5889791/support.

"Weekend's coming up, time to do some skanking!" -Becky CheatleRaven and Trevor continue their terrible feud, by taping things to Raven's locker (and only her locker, like she doesn't even touch his).

Our newest season on Bad Book Bash stars Irish comedians Ren Forsythe and Becky Cheatle as we review the vampire teen series, “Vampire Kisses”!Raven Madison is a goth girl trapped in a suburbanite town….and that’s really all there is to her personality. Nobody at school likes her; she claims it’s because of how she dresses but she equally makes fun of her peers for wearing Tommy Hilfiger so maybe they’re just tired of her pick-me-ass bullshit. Everything changes when the Sterling family moves to town, and Raven falls madly in love with their son, Alexander, because he is also a goth and that’s all they need to be soulmates! The Sterling family can’t eat garlic, are only seen at night, dress like the Addams family, carry around Romanian soil, and have a creepy lurch for a butler; but insist that they are not vampires.Listen to new episodes of “Vampire Kisses” on the Bad Book Bash podcast on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
