In our penultimate Gideon the Ninth recap episode (yes, we're really almost there!!), we look at the last half of Chapter 36, in which the fight against Cytherea concludes with Gideon's sacrifice. We also covered the so-called Western Conference of the first round of our "most iconic lines from Gideon the Ninth" tournament bracket, and continued our discussion of the apocalypse and resurrection in the series, looking at the significance of a nuclear apocalypse specifically within a New Zealan...

21. We Do Bones, Motherf*cker

The battle with Cytherea errupts as we recap the first half of Chapter 36 in this episode, followed by a dive into a tournament bracket of the most iconic lines in Gideon the Ninth, since we're so close to the end of this book (!!). Then we're taking a step back in time to discuss the timeline of the nuclear apocalypse and resurrection ten thousand years before the events of GTN—the first part of what will be a multi-episode discussion. We're almost there! * SPOILER ALERT * We reference even...

In this episode, Gideon finds “her last two living allies” [citation needed] in the Canaan House sickroom, and Palamedes goes out with a bang.

19. She Could Have Taken Me

Uh oh, sisters! In this episode, we’re reconnecting with the world’s most normal twins. Chapter 34 finds us in the Seventh House’s lyctoral lab with Ianthe, Corona, and Babs’ dead body. Ianthe performs her villain monologue, reveals Corona’s “bad, sad, secret,” and commits a little light self-defence killing to follow up her main course of first-degree murder. We then take another Nine Houses sorting quiz and get a bit off topic, and wrap up with a discussion of the theory that Corona may hav...

It's so over... We're so back! And we're so excited to begin by sinking our teeth into the short story, "The Unwanted Guest," from the paperback edition of Nona the Ninth. This episode is the first of a two-part discussion—in part one, we recap the events of the short story, featuring our personal faves Ianthe and Palamedes, and in part two (coming soon July 1), we'll get more in-depth about the broader implications of "The Unwanted Guest" for the series as a whole. * SPOILER ALERT...

18. Hit It With Your Sword

It’s been a minute, but we’re diving back into GIDEON THE NINTH! In this episode, we pick up our reread with Chapters 32 and 33, in which Gideon, Harrow, Pal, and Cam team up to explore a new room, Second House tragedies occur, and we find the last key inside Abigail’s corpse. We rated some hilarious descriptions of The Locked Tomb series from Tumblr users who’ve never read the books, and then it was time to talk keys and trials: What are the different trials in Canaan House and which lyctors...

Bonus: Do You Know Who I Am Yet? (Part 2)

We still have so much more to say about Nona the Ninth! After gushing over two characters we hadn't got to yet—Pyrrha and Pash!—we evaluated how well we did overall in our previous Nona theories episode and discussed the major plot developments and new information gained in this book. We took a fun new Nona quiz, acknowledged a new Kiss Truther scene you may have missed (we certainly did on our first reads!), and yes, if you saw our tweet, this episode also has a Big Goose. * SPOILER ALERT * ...

Bonus: Do You Know Who I Am Yet?

It's another bonus episode all about Nona the Ninth! (Sort of.) This episode is focused on the biggest theories and questions we had going into Nona and was recorded before we read it, so there aren't any spoilers or discussion of events past the excerpts released before publication. Although the book's obviously out now, we decided to resurrect this bonus episode from the dead, if you will, in order to establish what our expectations were going into Nona and give an overview of some of the b...

Happy Birthday Nona the Ninth!!!!! Please make sure you've finished reading the book before listening to this episode, as it is entirely made of spoilers. We're celebrating this special day with our very first reactions, recorded within 24 hours of reading Nona and having spoken to no one else about the book yet. This is the first Nona reaction episode we're releasing and we decided to focus on the characters—our favourite moments with them and all the emotions we were bursting with by the en...

17. And Then Could Say No More

This episode is about one thing only: THE POOL SCENE. Our best friend Nora joined us to celebrate the iconic Chapter 31 and we had so much fun chatting about everything that goes down in the Canaan House pool—from plot revelations to moments of intimacy we will simply never recover from. (We also have a very important personal agenda to push here and we're trying to convert you all!) Then a discussion we've been eagerly awaiting: Gideon and Harrow and the ROMANCE of it all. Despite the ...

16. Some People Will Do Anything to Get... A Head

Gideon's reeling from discovering the head of Protelisaus the Seventh in Harrow's closet when we start our recap of Chapter 30. A heavy dose of childhood secrets and guilt come to the surface in a conversation with Palamedes that we got very emotional about, and then the mood lightens with some good old inter-House bickering about Dulcinea's use of the beguiling corpse and the very important decision of what to do with the dead guy's head. Then it's time for another round of The Price Is Righ...

15. The Ninth Heart Is Black

Gideon is NOT having a great time as we recap Chapters 28-29, in which she has a truly awful visit with the Eighth House, is too confused to even appreciate Coronabeth's hotness, and finally makes a horrifying discovery in Harrow's closet. Then it's time for a quiz to see which houses we belong to—not to be confused with the new official Tor quiz, because we love to support our local uQuiz makers (and already tweeted our Tor quiz results). We finish with a discussion on our biggest questions ...

14. A Cavalier Worthy of a Lyctor

We're going on a guilt spiral with Gideon in Chapters 26-27, before a fight with Harrow blows up everything and leaves us on a thrilling cliffhanger. Baily gets quizzed on words for numbers in different languages, as we study up on the etymology of last names in the Nine Houses, and then it's time for a discussion of the King Undying, the Necrolord Prime, the kindly Prince of Death himself... just some guy named John. * SPOILER ALERT * We reference events from GTN and HTN in this p...

13. Sweet Dreams

Welcome to suffering hours. In a Chapter 25 that's straight out of a horror movie, poor Isaac Tettares and Jeannemary Chatur meet their tragic deaths and we will absolutely never be okay about it. There's a lot of wailing. But we tried to lift the mood afterwards with a fun vocab quiz, the second part of our discussion about lyctors Augustine and Mercymorn—including a look at the parallels between Harrow the Ninth and No Exit by Jean-Paul Sartre—and another very sexy bone!* SPOILER ALERT * We...

WE'RE BACK!!! And we're making up for our absence by bringing you sexy duels and sexy bones! Canaan House is plunged into chaos in Chapters 23-24, as the houses start fighting for possession of the keys. Camilla gets the chance to show off her duelling skills to a (mostly) unsuspecting audience and we can't possibly scream enough about it. Then it's time for another fun quiz, the first half of a two-part discussion about the horrible saints of Joy and Patience, and a very special bone of the ...

11. Variably Penitent

It's getting tense at Canaan House as we recap Chapters 21-22, in which discoveries are made about just how many keys there are for everyone to fight over and some mysterious remains are discovered in the incinerator... Then to lighten the mood, we play a classic game of fuck, marry, kill with the beloved (and not so beloved) characters of the Locked Tomb, before launching into a discussion about the original lyctors and what we actually know about them: the order of their ascensions, the ord...

10. You Want My Juice?

Our tenth episode is finally here! Gideon and Harrow are taking on the avulsion trial in Chapter 20 and we certainly feel like we've been through it too after all the technical delays we had to get through to put this out. We revisit Goodreads to see if we can tell the difference between some wild one- and five-star reviews of Gideon the Ninth, and then it's time to discuss CYTHEREA—her backstory, everything she did in Canaan House, and what exactly she was hoping to achieve. And of course, w...

9. Super Unbelievably Seriously Old

There are too many mysteries to keep track of in this episode! In Chapters 18-19, no one can agree on what happened to Magnus and Abigail and suspicions are cast wildly. Then Gideon and Harrow explore the very well-preserved rooms of a certain "G" and "P" and Gideon finds a note that happens to have her name on it... So it's time to discuss everything we know (and the many more things we don't know!) about Gideon the First, Pyrrha Dve, and one of the weirdest love triangles we've ever seen.&n...
