Summary
In today's spoiler-free mini-episode, I (Kaytee) am chatting with Jasmine Guillory, author of this summer's smash contemporary romance The Wedding Party. This minisode, with a romance writer, is not really kid-friendly, so do take note!
In this "minisode", Kaytee and Jasmine discuss so much food you'll be hungry when you're done (I recommend listening during your lunch hour)! We also talk about enemies-to-lovers tropes, the challenges and benefits of including real talk about race in an otherwise light book, and what it's like to be part of the Reese Witherspoon/Hello Sunshine book club! It's a great conversation and Jasmine was a total delight. I hope you love it!
And, as always, we'll end with a book she wants to press into your hands, readers!
