Heartbreaking Scenes in Fantasy and the Joy of Being in the Know

Have you ever watched someone read a book you've already read? You know they're about to get to a really upsetting part, and you just can't look away? You have to see what their reaction is going to be? In this spoiler free (as always) episode of A Book and A Dream, Megan O'Russell confesses her love of watching readers do this exact thing (i.e. Book Six of Harry Potter, that scene in Mockingjay...you know the one), and muses on why we love watching others get their hearts torn out. In case you missed episode 11, you can find it on Megan's website (by clicking here) or wherever you get your podcasts.
