Welcome to season three of Book Talk! We are starting the season off by chatting with Julie Wright about her newest novel Wendy’s Ever After! Fairy tales have always been my favorite and the story of a Peter Pan had been at the top of my list for a long time. I loved chatting with Julie and getting to see how she took this beloved story and made it her own.

Thank you so much for making room for Book Talk in your crazy lives! We’ve had so many exciting milestones this season that I had to share! Thanks for being in the Book Talk family!

I have loved the Blue Orchid Society series, by Jennifer Moore, since I first opened Solving Sophronia. This band of women had me wishing I was a Blue Orchid myself. I was so excited to finally chat with Jennifer Moore about the Blue Orchid Society ladies and their “Blue Gentlemen.” Join us as we discuss Jennifer’s inspiration for the series and dive into Dahlia’s own story.

Join Sian Ann Bessey and me as we dive into her newest novel, A Time Traveler’s Masquerade. We talk about how inspiration behind the novel, Guy Fawkes and the gunpowder plot, and a few of our favorite characters.

Join Amy Trent and me as we discuss her novella Curses, Diamonds, and Toads. I absolutely loved talking with Amy and getting to learn about her love of obscure fairy tales, character inspiration, and her writing process.

Join me as I chat with A.L. Sowards about her novel Beyond the Crescent Sky! We dive into the history woven into this novel and get the details on what influenced character choices. She also gave us a little peak into Danilo’s story, which releases later this year.

The matchmaking mama’s are at it again! But this time their help has been specifically asked for. Miles and Jemma’s story was everything I hoped for and needed. Join Anneka R. Walker and me as we discuss her third novel in the Matchmaking Mama’s series, The Gentleman’s Confession. We talk about the double love triangle, get a peak into what was originally planned, and get to know our main characters a little more.

I love reading books with my kids. I love listening to my kids giggle, gasp, and give their hearts to imaginary worlds and characters. Sheryl Bass’ Baby Dragon books immediately had my kids hearts. Join Sheryl Bass and me as we dive into how her work experience and education have influenced her writing, self-publishing, and of course her adorable baby dragon.

Fantasy novels have always had a special place in my heart. I love visiting impossible places and experiencing impossible things through the characters. Elizabeth Lowham’s novel Casters and Crowns is honestly one of the best YA fantasy novels I have read in a long time. Join Liz and me as we dive into her novel, Casters and Crowns. We discuss the process behind creating a fictional world, primary and secondary characters, and the many life lessons this book teaches.
