Hey y'all! We're here with part 1 of The Mark of the Midnight Manzanilla by Lauren Willig! There's a confident heroine who oozes awesome, there's a Vampire Duke (!! or is there?), spies!, MURDERRRRRR, it's a spooky good time.  Bonus Content:  Melody's salty because there's no sex. Listen! The characters are so hot and the romance is so good that she just wants there to be sex! It's because Lauren Willig is SO GOOD! And because Melody is a perv. #onbrand. Also, Trevor the Ferret, Beauregard the Dog, and #saladjokes! Enjoy. Lady Loves:  Melody: Impeachment, A Daily Podcast from WNYC's Bill Laher and Vox's Impeachment Explained Podcast. So good, so bite-sized, so curated, so not the gaping hole of the internet.  Erin: be a proud Pumpkin Slut!  Patreon Shout Out! Emmi S., you are the lovechild of Themis and Eos. Themis was a Greek Titaness in charge of order and fairness. You get the solid head on your shoulders from her. She also built the Oracle of Delphi and was, herself, orcacular, so that might explain how you broke the mold on those tattoos from your youth. You’ve always just KNOWN. Meanwhile, Eos is the goddess of dawn and new beginnings. She is where you get the bravery to start fresh and realize your dreams, no matter where you are in life. So you keep lacing up, working hard, and meeting your heroes, Emmi. You’re a goddamned inspiration.  Mentioned in this episode:Love the show? Leave a review!
