Save the knight. Glamour your own self. Stay out of the forest. Easy enough, right? But Kaye Fierch, secret pixie heroine of Holly Black's Tithe, finds herself in a web of prophecy, deceit, and really wicked parties. Guest Heather Talty of Newtown Literacy Alliance joins us to talk Tam Lin, Asbury Park, the origins of dark fae in YA, and Labyrinth as a right of passage.

Content Notes:

This book is real dark. There's murder, there's attempted sexual assault, violence, mind control, sadism, terrible parenting, character deaths, and teenagers who try to solve problems with guns.

The Very Secret Diaries by Cassandra Claire

Glamourbombing "is acts of enchanted art or performance intended to raise ambient magic levels and crack people's heads open a little to admit the idea that Faerie exists and might even be interacting with them. It isn't random acts of kindness (but do those anyway!), making people feel warm and fuzzy or cheering them up, or just "inspirational" platitudes with glitter added. While these things can have a subtle glamour to them, glamourbombing should above all be magical, and as intense as you can make it be - and magical and intense doesn't necessarily mean happy or comforting!"

The Incryptid Series

Tam Lin, the ballad, and the Pamela Dean book . We also love The Perilous Gard, Fire and Hemlock, and Winter Rose.
