Amazon Warriors - Episode 14: Neanderthal Seeks Human by Penny Reid (Part Two)




We're back with part two of our discussion of Neanderthal Seeks Human by Penny Reid. Ava is investigating hot dog crimes, and Brynn has an extremely good theory about the book's word count.
-----

From Amazon.com:

There are three things you need to know about Janie Morris: 1) She is incapable of engaging in a conversation without volunteering TMTI (TooMuch Trivial Information), especially when she is unnerved, 2) No one unnerves her more than Quinn Sullivan, and 3) She doesn't know how to knit.

After losing her boyfriend, apartment, and job in the same day, Janie Morris can't help wondering what new torment fate has in store. To her utter mortification, Quinn Sullivan - aka Sir McHotpants - witnesses it all then keeps turning up like a pair of shoes you lust after but can't afford. The last thing she expects is for Quinn- the focus of her slightly, albeit harmless, stalkerish tendencies- to make her an offer she can't refuse.

Amazon Warriors - Episode 13: Neanderthal Seeks Human by Penny Reid




It's lucky number thirteen, and we're reading another romance! Ava has immediate feelings and has to dig into her own Hermione Granger-esque tendencies when it comes to writing dialogue. Brynn notices a pattern in the protagonist's nicknames, and confirms that Kinnearing is in fact a thing.

Here's the one song mentioned in the episode.

We also had a series of technical difficulties this week (including a mic tragedy), so Ava's audio is a bit weird, but it improves significantly around 4:30.
