I had the privilege of chatting with, amazing indie author, Tessonja Odette (@tessonja) and I am so excited to share that with you! Tessonja has quite a few titles out and still more to come. Her latest book, Married by Scandal releases this Friday, September 23rd. I am a huge fan of her Fair Isle trilogy(To Carve a Fae Heart, To Wear a Fae Crown, and To Spark a Fae War) as well as her Entangled with Fae series which she uses to retell some of our classic favorites like Beauty and the Beast, Little Mermaid, Snow White and more. Join me as I chat with her about writing, morally grey characters, villain redemptions, favorite tropes, and her amazing talent as her own cover designer and character art creator. Enjoy!

In one of the longest recordings yet, I sat down to chat with Cam(aka @the_paperbackprince) and we talked about New York, banned books, literary representation and gender/sexuality conversations... We also talked about Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe, the Caraval series, and we said some major spoilers for one of my favorite books Every Heart a Doorway.
AND because we talked SO much, I chose to split our convo into two parts to make it a little more time friendly.
As always... Enjoy!

In the second half of my conversation with Cam, we discussed the sad passing of the 'midnight release' for books, book-to-screen adaptations affecting book crazes, unpopular book opinions, his favorite trope, reading goals and habits, and we are left with one final question. Will Cam EVER read The Book of Night by Holly Black?

She is part of the elite OG bookstagrammers(in my opinion) and she is sweet and hilarious. Join me as I chat with Ella(aka @hungrybookworm_) about her 5 years on bookstagram, historical fiction and historical dinner guests, the real-life values of the Harry Potter and the Percy Jackson series, our love for Kaz Brekker, favorite and least favorite tropes, the negative impact of purity culture and so much more.
If you stick around all the way to the end you'll hear me get heavily triggered over the Outlander series. Don't miss out! And, enjoy.

**SPOILERS: ACOTAR series and Throne of Glass series**
When she is not being a wife and mom, Marae(known online as @maraegood.writes) is busy reading, writing and serving up the most hilariously relatable  Bookstagram reels I have ever seen. Join us as we chat about writing-life, SJM, our love of broody characters, and more.
Also, if you cry when someone else cries... bring tissues because in the back half we get emotional. 

In this episode I chat with Michigander Arthur, a.k.a. @nocrackedspines. He got into bookstagram because(like most of us) the shutdown of March 2020 brought him back into reading and he was looking to share his reads with others. Join us as we talk about fantasy genres, sci-fi, and book-to-screen likes and dislikes.
