Murder disrupts the routine for four quirky librarians who hide among books to keep their secrets in this mystery from USA Today bestselling author Sherry Thomas. Sometimes a workplace isn’t just a workplace but a place of safety, understanding, and acceptance. And sometimes murder threatens the sanctity of that beloved refuge…. In the leafy suburbs of Austin, Texas, a small branch library welcomes the public every day of the week. But the patrons who love the helpful, … Continue reading The Librarians →
We like to recap and talk about shows that we think romance readers might like, and that we want to help attain a wider audience. Last year we recapped The Librarians episode by episode, and it’s back this year for season 2 on TNT in the US. (Yay!) We’re not recapping it since we’ve got other shows on the schedule – but I would feel terrible if y’all missed out on seeing the Seriously Smoking Hot Bad Guy. Now, … Continue reading SYSBW: Hot Villain Alert on The Librarians, Season 2 →
There’s a very strange opening in which Eve wakes up smiling at a bloody hand – this will presumably make sense later. She snaps to full consciousness and finds herself fighting a bunch of mummies, along with The Scoobies. They are all working well as a team and hey – here’s Flynn, who told everyone to meet him at the pyramid but failed to mention mummies or the medallions which they wear (remove the medallions and … Continue reading The Librarians Episode 10: And the Loom of Fate →
In the teaser, an adorable ufologist (I love that word) named Victor is killed, creepily, by townspeople (or is he?). At the Annex, Jenkins says that UFOs do not exist. The Scoobies point out that Santa, fairy tales, and haunted houses are real, so why not UFOs? But Jenkins is adamant about this. The Librarians are off to the town to investigate. The immediately split up. Jesus, splitting up again? I know it’s efficient, but … Continue reading The Librarians Episode 9: And the City of Light →
And welcome to…The Librarians and the Heart of Darkness! Yes, in order to avoid colliding with basketball season, TNT is giving us two episodes this week, thus insuring that I will have so much to type that my fingers fall off. We open with a young woman (in her late teens or early twenties) running out of a house and into the woods. She’s bloody and screaming and she careens into the Scoobies and says … Continue reading The Librarians, Episode 8: And the Heart of Darkness →
Welcome to another busy episode of The Librarians! Everyone is hanging out at the Annex even though it’s everyone’s day off. Cassie, Eve and Jenkins are doing various research projects, Jake is looking at art books, and Ezekiel is rather adorably hiding from the police. The clip book get’s so excited about some magical disaster or other that it does shiny things. Strange things are afoot at the Chicagoland STEM Fair! Cassie is thrilled beyond … Continue reading The Librarians, Episode 7: And the Rule of Three →
Oooh, this episode was directed by Jonathan Frakes, who I continue to believe is a terrible actor but a fabulous director. In the opening, a jerk who is driving his truck across a bridge gets dumped in the water by giant. Sadly, he lives. Our team goes to the town which is not-so-subtly named “Bremen” to investigate and they discover a giant fingerprint on the jerk’s truck. Jenkins tells the team that the print probably … Continue reading The Librarians, Episode 6: And the Fables of Doom →
Welcome to this week’s recap and group review of The Librarians. Episode 5 is called “The Apple of Discord”. There’s an earthquake at Mount Fuji, and over at The Annex the clip book is freaking out. Turns out magic earthquakes are happening all over the place. And hey, Flynn is back! “It’s the dragons,” he says, portentously. Dragons sleep underground and when they wake up they cause “havoc.” Eastern and Western dragons have been in … Continue reading The Librarians, Episode 5: The Apple of Discord →
Carrie: Welcome to Episode 4 of The Librarians: “And Santa’s Midnight Run.” We open with a guy trying to steal the cash donations from a soup kitchen. He is talked down by, wait for it…Bruce Campbell, who is playing, I shit you not, Santa. Bruce talks to the guy about inner goodness while the fake Santa in the back eats chili, which I personally found hilarious. Then, oh no, Bruce Campbell is hit with a tranquilizing … Continue reading The Librarians Episode 4: “And Santa’s Midnight Run” →
