Ep 11 - BOOK 21 - RUNAWAY - a podcast by Van&Jas

Do you hate the feeling of wet jorts, internalized misogyny and the normalization of the male gaze upon teen girls? Do you love crying underwater, intergenerational family dramz and haunted gingerbread gazebos with portals to other dimensions? Well then BOY OH BOY, do we have a Sweet Valley High book for you! In Book 21, "RUNAWAY," Jess decides she's totally over her family treating her like a trash panda who keeps knocking over their garbage bins and devises a plan to run away to San Fran (and possibly join a crime syndicate?) with her sensitive new sweetie Nicky Shepard, a young man who sometimes drinks beer. Quelle horreur! Meanwhile, over in the other story, Worst Dad Ned breaks attorney-client privilege when he encourages Liz to exploit the pain of her friends harrowing custody battle in an attempt to further her own career by writing an article for the local newspaper.

Will the Wakefields wake the FUCK up and realize their bb girl needs some attention STAT before she leaves them for the mean streets of early 80's San Fran forever? Will Liz somehow doublespeak her way out of having anybody hold her accountable for her actions that caused them a world of pain? LISTENING TO THIS EP RIGHT NOW IS THE ONLY WAY YOU'LL EVER FIND OUT!
