Hannah and Laura are covering the first third of Jim Butcher's book, Blood Rites, and seeing Harry Dresden as a detective in a [fairly] straightforward murder mystery. They also chat about a show that Hannah is making part of her personality, depictions of chronic illness in books, and Laura's preference for learning about the histories of Middle Earth rather than histories of actual Earth...

Hannah is getting married soon! So that means Indie Intermission looks a little different this time around. Hannah and Laura have created a bracket of some independently published books that have been participants in previous Indie Intermissions and they use a random generator to choose the next Indie Intermission winner!! This is a shorter episode, but be sure to check out all of the books/authors mentioned and show them some support!
