I’m excited to be joined on the show today by guest author, Marian Yee. On this episode we’re going to talk about her new book, 4 Janes, a genre-bending re-telling of Jane Eyre. When Jane Eyre’s story doesn’t end with her marriage to Edward Rochester, her adventures begin again as a missionary’s wife, a bookseller in Vietnam, a time-traveler, and a heroine in a modern gothic tale.

I’m excited to be joined on the show today by guest author, Tiffany Warren. On this episode we’re going to talk about her new book, A Harlem Wedding. A dishy and dramatic novel of the Harlem Renaissance and its most famous Black debutante, Yolande Du Bois, daughter of W.E.B. Du Bois, whose spectacular wedding to poet Countee Cullen was the society event of the year...even though the bride and groom were not-so-secretly in love with other people.

I’m excited to be joined on the show today by guest author, Ruta Sepetys. On this episode we’re going to talk about her new book, A Fortune of Sand. Set against the crumbling grandeur of 1920s Detroit and inspired by actual, long-buried historical events, A Fortune of Sand is a haunting mosaic of glamour and grift. In a city built on ambition, just how far will a dynasty go to keep their secrets?
