Dear Listener, Emma M. Lion has been keeping a journal—and we have had the presumption to read it. Twice. The Emmas is the unselected, unendorsed, and unsponsored—but very enthusiastic—book club podcast devoted to discussing, dissecting, appreciating, and occasionally overthinking all the happenings of St. Crispian’s. Join four friends as we revisit every plot twist, literary reference, mysterious backstory, and questionable decision. All rights to the story belong to Beth Brower. This independent fan project is intended for commentary, discussion, celebration, and fair use.

Meet The Emmas: Anna, Angèle, Laura, and Ellie! We discuss how the podcast got out of the group chat and into your earbuds, share a little about ourselves and our friendship as a group, and present the structure for the podcast. In this episode, we discuss the first half of Volume 1, meet our favorite citizen of St. Crispian's, and the journal as a format. Next time, we will be reading from April 7 to the end of Volume 1!
