Summary

**spoiler chat for Seven Days In June starts around 33:45 and ends around 49:50, I also mention within the episode before we start!

In this episode of Gilmore To Read, I am joined by the wonderful Tia Williams, the author of Reading Is Sexy's April pick Seven Days In June. Tia is a massive fan of Gilmore Girls, a pop culture junkie, and lets us know which scene from the show she thinks is one of the best scenes in television! She got inspiration for Seven Days In June from Baz Luhrmann's Romeo & Juliet, her fascination with old Hollywood and toxic mothers, and her own experience with chronic pain. I loved getting to know more about the woman behind the book and hope you do too!

We'll be back later this month to talk Gilmore To Read's May picks.

If you want to join our book clubs, find us on Fable! For the month of June, Where You Read, I Will Follow is reading Yellowface by RF Kuang and Reading Is Sexy is reading Funny Feelings by Tarah DeWitt.

0:00.0	Hi y'all, welcome back to Goodmore to Read. I'm your host Haley, and I'm very excited for this
0:13.7	episode today. Now, normally on the first Thursday of June, we would be talking about the books
0:19.4	from our May book club picks, Happy Place and the Idiot, but we'll be talking about the books from our May book club picks,
0:21.9	Happy Place and The Idiot, but we'll be talking about those later this month because today I have
0:26.2	a very special guest. If you listen to the last episode of Gilmore to read, where I talked
0:30.7	about seven days in June by Tia Williams, which was our April pick for reading sexy.
0:35.9	I mentioned that I was trying to get Tia on the pod, and she got
0:38.5	back saying that she would love to come on and that she was a massive Gilmore Girls fan.
0:42.3	So today is my conversation with Tia. If you have not yet read seven days in June, that's perfectly
0:48.0	fine. I feel like this is still a perfect episode for you to listen to to get to know Tia and what
0:52.8	the book is about. We do talk pretty generally
0:55.5	until a very specific point, in which case I will let you know when we're about to get into
1:00.8	some spoilers. I will also put them in the show notes so that if you have not yet read it,
1:05.3	but you still want to get to No Tia and hear what the book is about and maybe still pick it up.
1:10.7	You can hit pause, go read the book,
1:12.7	come back and press play. And before we get into my conversation with Tia, I know I mentioned
1:17.2	this on the podcast earlier this week, but if you do want to join us in either of our book clubs
1:21.1	for the month of June, where you read, I will follow is reading Yellowface by R.F.
1:25.9	Kwong, and I have to be totally honest, I bought the book in
1:31.6	preparation for the book club to start it this weekend with all of you, and there is a high
1:37.5	likelihood that I finished it the day that I got it. I will neither confirm nor deny it,
1:43.0	but it's highly likely that may have possibly happened,
