Welcome back to Razzlefrat! This week Allie is reading Bell Hooks while Ashtin has been sucked deep into a Dramione fanfic wormhole. BUT she redeems herself by having an intellectual conversation with Allie about Greta Gerwig’s Little Women. We chat about the juxtaposition between Jo and Amy, social expectations for women and loneliness, and the power of women owning their own stories—in every sense. Be sure to follow us in between episodes on our booksta accounts @grapes_of_ash and @theresinkonmyhands and also our joint account @razzlefratpod! Until next time, we bid you farewell. xoxo, Razzlefrat
