Bestselling writing duo Ali Brady (a.k.a Alison Hammer and Bradeigh Godfrey) joins Zibby to celebrate their new pitch-perfect rom-com, BATTLE OF THE BOOKSTORES. They share the inspiration behind their rivals-to-lovers story set in dueling indie bookstores, the joys and challenges of co-writing, and how real booksellers helped shape the authentic behind-the-scenes details. The conversation also touches on the importance of independent bookstores, Jewish representation in fiction, and the balance of joy and creativity even in difficult times.
