On this week’s Legion of Leia Podcast episode 43, my co-hosts Anastasia WashingtonSabina Ibarra and I welcome author and actress Kimberly De Liz. She’s written a new book called A Lullaby of Flies, which deals with her lifelong struggle with an eating disorder and her life in the military. (You can check out a review here!) We talk all about her work, the crazy way she got into acting and why she had to tell this story. Next, we take on our brand spanking new Houses in Ilvermorny, the American school of witchcraft and wizardry! There is a brand new sorting quiz, but don’t be fooled into thinking there is a Hogwarts equivalent! J.K. Rowling said there isn’t! You know we want to know yours! We’re also talking about the new Star Trek Beyond trailer and the song released with it.

Then, we take on the bat crap crazy Game of Thrones finale! Yes, there will be spoilers there, so if you haven’t watched, be warned. We’re talking about who sits on the Iron Throne, who’s related to whom, what the end game of this season says about where we’re going and we talk about some pretty insane theories. You’ve heard the one where Varys is a merman? No, really. That’s a thing! Check out the episode and let us know what you think! If you do post a spoiler-y comment, please mark it clearly. As someone who didn’t get to watch on Sunday, as we were moving everything we own into a new place, I appreciate trying to avoid spoilers! Oh! And that Cosplay Train that Sabina talks about? Check out their Facebook here and follow them on Twitter @CosplayTrain! Kimberly mentions her sister and brother-in-law Renae De Liz (the reason why Kim and I know each other) and Ray Dillon who have The Legend of Wonder Woman out, which you should definitely check out!
Follow Kimberly on Twitter @kimberlysdl. Check out the website for the book at alullabyofflies.com and its listing on Amazon. You can also get the paperback link here or order it from your local bookstore!
