Hey there, how are you? Welcome to the Fantasy Fanreads podcast, where we gather as friends to chat about our shared love of all things reading. I'm Jess, an avid lifelong reader and lover of cozy conversations. So go ahead and grab yourself a cup of something wonderful and come on in. Today's episode is a super exciting author interview for me. I'm joined by

Sarah Beth Durst, author of recent books such as The Spell Shop, the Enchanted Greenhouse, the

warbler, and so many more. How are you doing today, Sarah? I am doing great. I'm so excited to be

talking with you. Thanks for having me here. Oh, you're so welcome, Sarah. I'm frankly thrilled, through the moon to talk to you today because your books are such a warm hug that really cemented my love for the cozy fantasy genre. So I can't wait to dig into all of that with you. A quick heads up as we get started. This episode will be mostly spoiler-free for Sarah's books, but since I can't help myself, there will be a few questions at the end of the episode that head into spoiler territory. I'll be sure to give you a warning first before we spill the tea. Fantasy Fan Reads is also the newest podcast in the Fantasy Fan Girls Media Network, and as a new show, your support means the world.
