Welcome back to Razzlefrat! This week, Allie is getting over being sick (physically, but also of the universe’s BS) and Ashtin is working double time to stave off The January Abyss™. Then, we break down some common literary tropes and discuss our faves and least faves (trope jail, anyone?). Join us next time for our masochistic Normal People watch/breakdown! 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
