So, after a stressful exam season and one lost recording later, we're finally back with TWILIGHT PART II for more of the big questions, such as why did Harry Clearwater have a heart attack? And is Bella really Satan?

Come talk to us! Email thevampirebookclub@gmail.com and send us your thoughts on TWILIGHT, or the topic of our next episode: female villainy Ann Radcliffe's THE ITALIAN, which we will definitely be recording in two week's time (promise).

Stay Spooky!

HAPPY HALLOWEEEEEEEEN! In this (very belated) episode we're doing our first vampire story (!!!) with Stephenie Meyer's TWILIGHT SAGA, and discuss, amongst other things, WikiHow's 'How to be like Bella Swan', Carlisle's friendly neighbourhood apothecary, and the bureaucracy involved in ruling a vampire coven.

This was only meant to be a chill Halloween podcast sesh, but we realised towards the end that we just have so much more to say about these books and so we will be back with a TWILIGHT SAGA, Part II

Come talk to us! Email thevampirebookclub@gmail.com and send us your thoughts on TWILIGHT for the next episode, or DRACULA which we will definitely still be doing at some point.

Stay Spooky!
