Game of Thrones Season 4 Book Comparison and Review – Episodes 9 and 10





Well, that’s Game of Thrones done for another year. Already people are lamenting the loss of their favourite show and counting down the days to season 5.

Behind the cut I talk about the last two episodes of the season, some of the key differences to the book series and what we might expect to see moving forward.

The Book Was Better Episode 89: The Babysitter's Club (with guest host Lia!)

This week we expose the inner workings, poor financial decisions, and ruthless management of doomed business enterprise The Babysitter's Club, as we trawl through the confusing novelization of the film of the same name! Luckily I am joined by first timer and BSC veteran, Lia, who helps me keep track of which one is the dyslexic, artsy girl, and which one is the paranoid maniac with delusions of grandeur. Sorry we skipped a couple of weeks but we are back with a mighty vengeance!
