Brenna and Joe dive deep into Deborah Harkness\\u2019 600 page tome A Discovery of Witches and discover\\u2026that they don\\u2019t care for supernatural romances. They debate the attraction to mates that can kill you, question the editorial decisions of the book and praise Teresa Palmer\\u2019s performance in the TV adaptation (available now on Sundance Now and Shudder).

Plus: Brenna gets excited for the June release of Abdi Nazemian\\u2019s Like a Love Story, a vital queer love story set during the AIDS crisis. Joe, meanwhile, seeks comfort in John Allison\\u2019s graphic novel series Giant Days.
