Let's cause an earthquake with our minds because guest Megan Kearns from the Women InSession Podcast and I are talking about how we would adapt "The Fifth Season" by N.K. Jemisin! We discuss the book's and "The Broken Earth" trilogy's success and how an adaptation must juggle a lot of aspects like honoring BIPOC and queer stories and retaining its social justice spirit. We also talked about how traumatizing readers can be necessary in a story.
