\"Flowers<\/a><\/p>\n

Kait, Renata, and their guests Sophi<\/a> and Stacey<\/a> read (or re-read) Flowers in the Attic<\/em> by V. C. Andrews<\/a>. Some of us reflected fondly about furtively reading this in our childhoods, while others of us struggled to understand the appeal of the Dollanganger saga. Don’t worry–we read the sex scene aloud, so you don’t have to find that dogeared page from your library’s copy. Curl up with your loved ones and listen to the sinful struggles of the devil’s issue!<\/p>\n

Content Warning:<\/strong> Flowers in the Attic contains several types of incest (most prominently sibling incest) and a scene of sexual assault, both of which are discussed in this episode.<\/p>\n

Readers advisory<\/strong>: Here.<\/a><\/p>\n

Footnotes:\u00a0<\/strong>What It’s Like to Date Your Dad<\/a><\/p>\n

Candy pairing: <\/strong>Kait says black licorice<\/a>, Renata says an inedible Christmas ornament<\/a>, Sophi says Sugar Daddys<\/a>, and Stacey says Hostess powdered Donettes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Coming up next:\u00a0<\/strong>Not Cool: The Hipster Elite and Their War On You<\/em> by Greg Gutfeld.<\/a><\/p>\n
