HP5: The Order of the Baddies

March 13, 2024

Bookisode

Hey Baddies, this week we’re talking about Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix! As the bookisode counterpart to our Bookish Besties tropisode, we’re diving into the friendships in HP5– what makes them unique, who would be in our HP crew, the drawbacks of workplace trauma bonding, and why Molly Weasley is the actual GOAT.

(Books and Baddies does not support JK Rowling or her beliefs in any way, and we recognize how huge Harry Potter was as part of our personal literary upbringings. Because we are discussing the HP franchise, we are working to counteract this publicity by making a donation to the Trevor Project. Check out more information at thetrevorproject.org.)
