Looking for some good romance books to spice up your shelves?! Jordy and Sally sit down to discuss their favorite romance books of 2022…and some of the flops they read.
In the second segment, Ashley interviews Charlaine Harris about the fourth novel in her Gunnie Rose series, THE SERPENT IN HEAVEN. The discussion includes world and character building, the surprises Charlaine found when researching, and her thoughts about gratitude and its purpose in the story. Ashley, of course, asks Charlaine about Sookie Stackhouse and her impact in storytelling and pop culture.
