Haiiiiii!!! This week, we begin our discussion of Ako's second book, The House of the Spirits by Isabel Allende! As always, we'll start with a juicy ass plot summary of all the events up until the end of Chapter 6. From there, we'll dive into a bigger discussion around themes such as the intersection of magic and feminism, world-building tactics, ironic racism, and 986 reasons why we don't mess with bitch-ass Esteban Trueba. 

Plot Summary: 2:50 - 40:29

Discussion: 40:40 - 1:21:39
