S05.31: Stealing Midnight by Tracy MacNish: A+ Fresh
Finally, the read along we’ve been promising! We’re so excited to talk about Tracy MacNish’s Stealing Midnight, a gothic romance from 2008 that delivers what we here at the pod like to refer to as “the full banana.” We talk about bodysnatchers, about science, about dukes in disguise, about twins, and about why historical romance is unmatched. If you know Tracy MacNish, please tell her we love her book, and we’d really appreciate it if she’d write that second one.
Thank you, as always, for listening! Please follow us on your favorite podcasting app, and if you are up for leaving a rating or review there, we would be very grateful.
Show Notes
Let the New York Public Library explain the history of gothic romance to you.
Perhaps you want to know a little bit more about Resurrectionists and grave robbers. Most bodysnatchers were working for people who were learning about human anatomy.
I guess you could watch The Banshees of Inisherin if you want to learn to correctly pronounce the name Padraig.
Should you tell your twins their birth order?
Talking about foils is some real English teacher business.
Sir Gawain was one of King Arthur’s knights
Spanish fly is a real thing, and probably best to stay away from it.
