Casing the CoverAuthor: Mary Harrington
Casing the Cover was born when two library rats started wondering just how misleading, misguided, and mystifying book covers could really be. Hosts Jenn and Mary adventure through weird cover art, absurd titles, and the downright confounding choices publishers make to sell books to try to determine what actually happens when you judge a book by its cover.

Tales of Transformation
Tuesday, 30 August, 2022
This week we look at different transformation tales. This troupe has been in fiction for a long time, with many stories being direct adaptations of the Beauty and the Beast story. So this week we look at three such tales: By The Book by Jasmine Guillory, Howl's Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones, and the 2006 film Penelope. How do these stories stack up to the classic fairy tale they take inspiration from, and will Disney+ listen to Mary’s pitch for their own rom com universe? Listen to this week’s episode and find out. New episodes of Casing the Cover are released each month.
