Happy July! In a world often overshadowed by negativity, the power of storytelling and romance can serve as a beacon of hope and joy. In this episode I had the absolute delight of chatting with Celeste Dador and all about her debut novel, "Stars, Stripes, and Summer Nights"! It is literally the essence of warmth and inclusivity, which mean so much to me, and it's the absolute perfect read for the 250th birthday of America!

Tired of the drama in the book community? Me too. Conflict, hurt, anger, shaming, and the back and forth bashing is just not my vibe. It's a two way street of hate that is splitting this community where there should be love and safety and belonging! So what can we do instead? Give this short episode a listen and tell me your thoughts on the "Spread Love Read Books" Initiative.

Have you ever wondered what contributes to your own happiness? Of course a lot of things factor in to the concept of joy and its pursuit, but studies have shown that one of the most important things + top contributors that make up our happiness in life is the quality of our relationships. What does that have to do with books?? I'm so glad you asked.

Lyndsay (AKA @maryoliversdrunkcousin) is the first ever poet on the podcast! And when I say we laugh our way through the entire episode that is no exaggeration. She has mastered the art of relatability + humor + feels. You'll be giggling one second and sobbing the next, all while nodding your head because you get it! Come laugh and cry with us while we chat about how Lyndsay became an "accidental poet" and how that lead to release of her poetry book!

This is the first time I've interviewed an author AGAIN for a podcast! And it's only fitting that it be the fabulous Kate Golden. Make sure you've read the nail-biting finale to her Sacred Stones trilogy before you give this episode a listen!

Introducing the author of my favorite paranormal read of this spooky season (Love and Other Conspiracies) - the fabulous Mallory Marlowe! It blows me away that this is her debut novel. Absolute top notch tension, banter, romance, all the trimmings and trappings. Also borderline unhinged plot that's so hilarious and conspiracy theorists wearing backwards baseball caps so there's that. Come meet the mastermind behind the masterpiece + die on the romance hill with us!
