Hello and welcome to worst bestsellers where we read about how today is where your book begins because the rest is still unwritten, so you don't have to.

I'm Renata.

And I'm Kate.

And for this episode, we read L.A. Candy by Lauren Conrad.

Joining us to discuss this thinly veiled reality television novel is Helena Greer, author of Season

of Love and the upcoming For Never and Always in fall

2023.

Hello.

Hi.

Hello.

Thanks for joining us, Helena.

Yay, I'm so excited.

We're so excited to have you.

We've been hyping your book a lot. I specifically have been hyping your book a lot.

I specifically have been hyping your book a lot for the past several years.

And I'm very glad that it exists for other people to purchase and read and talk about how great it is and how much they want to crawl into it and live there.

Yes. I only read it more recently by the time it hit NetGalley, but I also enjoyed it very much. And if you're listening

to this episode, it comes out tomorrow. So you can almost certainly go and read it right away.

Lucky you. If you're listening to this episode, the day it comes out, if you listen to it any other day,

then the day it comes out, then you can get it today.

Whoa.

Time travel.
