SUMMARY:The February Book Club - The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu Mandanna
DESCRIPTION:We’re so excited to announce that our book for February is all about love… in all different kinds of forms – The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sandu Mandanna! Our meeting will be February 18th at 7PM ET. \nHere’s the write up –  \n“A warm and uplifting novel about an isolated witch whose opportunity to embrace a quirky new family—and a new love—changes the course of her life. \nAs one of the few witches in Britain\, Mika Moon knows she has to hide her magic\, keep her head down\, and stay away from other witches so their powers don’t mingle and draw attention. And as an orphan who lost her parents at a young age and was raised by strangers\, she’s used to being alone and she follows the rules…with one exception: an online account\, where she posts videos “pretending” to be a witch. She thinks no one will take it seriously. \nBut someone does. An unexpected message arrives\, begging her to travel to the remote and mysterious Nowhere House to teach three young witches how to control their magic. It breaks all of the rules\, but Mika goes anyway\, and is immediately tangled up in the lives and secrets of not only her three charges\, but also an absent archaeologist\, a retired actor\, two long-suffering caretakers\, and…Jamie. The handsome and prickly librarian of Nowhere House would do anything to protect the children\, and as far as he’s concerned\, a stranger like Mika is a threat. An irritatingly appealing threat. \nAs Mika begins to find her place at Nowhere House\, the thought of belonging somewhere begins to feel like a real possibility. But magic isn’t the only danger in the world\, and when peril comes knocking at their door\, Mika will need to decide whether to risk everything to protect a found family she didn’t know she was looking for….” \nAnd here’s what people are saying –  \n“Mandanna crafts a cast of winningly quirky characters\, each with their own part to play in Mika’s path to belonging… This charming romantic fantasy is a gem.” – Publishers Weekly [Starred Review] \n“This whimsical romance is full of quirky\, lovable characters who will charm even the grumpiest of readers. It’s an enchanting story that brings to life the wonders of finally finding your people and letting love find you.” – The Washington Post \nIf you would like to join us\, make sure you’re on the $7+ tier on our Patreon for the month of February!

SUMMARY:Smithsonian Associates: Sleeping Beauty - Once Upon a Dream
DESCRIPTION:You probably think you know the story of the cursed girl hidden away in the castle overgrown with thorns. There’s an evil\, jealous fairy and a magical spinning wheel\, and it all turns out well due to true love’s kiss. It’s one of our most famous\, well-loved\, and most often retold fairy tales. But “Sleeping Beauty” actually has a long and complicated past\, one filled with goddesses\, magic rings\, astrology\, and atrocities far beyond anything you’d ever see in a Disney film. \n“Sleeping Beauty” has existed in countless versions around the world\, and its roots go back to at least early French medieval texts. We can even connect it to earlier stories about the seasons. The idea of the beauty of nature undergoing a temporary death in the autumn\, only to return to life with the arrival of spring\, is a cross-cultural concept perhaps best exemplified by the Greek myth of Hades and Persephone. It’s also easily applied to the story of the cursed sleeping maiden who reawakens to a world born anew. This is a tale that repeatedly raises questions of cycles\, propriety\, and what love really means. \nFolklorists Sara Cleto and Brittany Warman of the Carterhaugh School of Folklore and the Fantastic explore “Sleeping Beauty” on February 25th\, 2025 at 6:45PM\, delving into how people tell the story around the world\, what changes it has undergone\, and how it has been retold to tackle new ideas in recent times. What captivates us so much about this tale\, and how might we take possibly the most passive fairy-tale princess of all and make her relevant for modern audiences? The lecture also includes a few prompts for audience interaction. \nClick here to get your tickets!
