Hi Smooches! On this episode, we have our second, surprise winner from the Romance for Reproductive Justice auction. Shantel of the podcast Drunk Art History, Bitches joins us to talk about romance novels that feature body diversity, whether that’s in depictions of weight, disability, or invisible illnesses. We loved digging into this topic, and want to hear your recommendations, too. So check the links in the show notes and let us know what body diversity picks we missed. Also, while you’re on your phone, won’t you rate us five stars on Apple Podcasts? It helps more people find the show and gives us badly needed serotonin. We hope this episode gives you a serotonin boost, too.
