If We Were Villains: Act I | Just Some Theater Kid Vibes 💀

from The Midnight Readers Podcast · host Lillian Kim, Christy Crabtree, Brittany Cook

Hey readers! We’re excited to continue our dark academia theme this week with the first episode of If We Were Villains by M. L. Rio! It’s a completely different vibe this time around - and we’re wondering how this is going to play out just as much as the characters. This week we’re introducing the main characters and starting out with a bang. Why is Oliver in jail and did he really do it? Who will meet their end… and how does the lives of these seven students completely upend so quickly, when they work together so well? And please.. Someone familiar with Shakespeare throw us a bone! I guess “Confusion now hath made his masterpiece” because this week we’re thrown into the fire with little to guide us! If you’ve got some guidance, leave a comment. Join us this week on the Midnight Reader’s Podcast. Let us know your feelings too in the comments! Join the discussion. You can find us on Instagram, Facebook, Threads and Youtube @themidnightreaderspodcast. Interested in more from us? You can also read our stream-of-consciousness reactions to the reading and show notes and see what didn't make it to the show on our Patreon now. And consider joining our growing community there for other bonus content, chaos and more.
