Megan's Bookish Life was so excited to have on author S.A. Barnes where we talked about which genres were more difficult to write than other ones she's written, if the characters in some books come to her first or if the plot does, and I gush so much about her older YA books, The Ghost and the Goth (because they are worth it!)

+Megan’s Bookish Life is a huge supporter of indie bookstores. This podcast is a big fan of Three Avenues Bookshop, an independent bookstore in Chicago. When you see + next to a link, it means you're supporting Three Avenues!
