30. Half Sick of Shadows by Laura Sebastian

Description
Stephanie thinks Hannah will love–or at least, not hate–Laura Sebastian’s take on the Arthurian legend, Half Sick of Shadows. Will Stephanie’s prediction, unlike many of the Lady of Shalott’s visions in the novel, come true?  Elaine, only daughter of the kingdom of Shalott, has a secret: she sees visions of the future. After leaving her oppressive mother in the court of Camelot, Elaine grows up on the fay-inhabited island of Avalon alongside Arthur, Lancelot, Guinevere, and Morgana. When the five friends must return to court to help Arthur claim his throne, Elaine’s visions of the future will be tested, and the heavy weight of all their choices will continually haunt her. Join Stephanie and Hannah this week as they discuss this female-centered revision of the story of Camelot and why they would definitely not want to see the future.  Support this show by subscribing and leaving a review!  You can support us on Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/hatethisbookpod  Follow us on Twitter and Instagram  Write to us at [email protected] Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.
