Geeky Beauty and the Beast

[Movie still from Beauty and the Beast (2017), Walt Disney Pictures]

We all know that Beauty and the Beast is a tale as old as time – but it doesn’t have to stay that way. What if we put a geeky spin on this classic tale of love? Let’s move away from the past and look into the future. Why, a love this historic could be…out of this world!  That’s right, folks, we’re talking Beauty and the Beast in space!

It’s Women’s History Month and we’re looking for as many reasons as possible to celebrate the women in our lives. March is prime “because I love you” gift time, so we’ve rounded up five of our favorite feminist books to get for your best friend, sister, mother, aunt, or significant other. Because adding to someone’s feminist library is always a great idea.

QUIZ: Is Your BFF Stabbing You in the Back?

The Ides of March is here, so we don’t know about you, but we’re watching our backs. In case you’re not in the know, Julius Caesar was famously stabbed to death on the Ides of March (that’s March 15, by the way) by his friend and protégé, Brutus. Since we love you so much and don’t want you to suffer the same fate, we’ve created a literature-based quiz to help you determine if your BFF is about to stab (or is currently stabbing) you in the back.

There’s a little supervillain in all of us. Okay, maybe there's a LOT of supervillain in all of us. Whatever the case may be, you can't devise ominous master plans in your lair without a name to match your evilness.
