Even though it says "Part 3" in the title, we close out Part 2 of The Trial of Lovers: The Maiden of Mátsaki and the Red Feather this week, thus bringing an end to our tale of a guy so dumb and annoying he caused the ver
This week, we conclude at least Part 1 of The Trial of Lovers: The Maiden of Mátsaki and the Red Feather, having learned nothing about said Red Feather, but a surprising amount about bugs, their legs, and the lexicon of

We're back to regularly scheduled antics after surviving d'Aulnoy again, this time to read The Dun Cow , a story that would've fazed us a decade ago, but to which we now find ourselves unfortunately inured. Suggested tal
