I had so much fun chatting with Wendy Heard about all things- books, writing, Heartstopper and more. Her latest, You Can Trust Me, is a psychological thriller that has Eyes Wide Shut vibes and remote islands. It was a People Magazine pick of the week and a perfect summer read.

Could be the longest episode in the history of Books are Chic! Thea Glassman joined me for her 5 star read, Freak, Gleeks and Dawson's Creek- How 7 Teen Shows Transformed Television. This episode was a dream come true! An author who did the greatest deep dive into some of the best television shows who is also a pop culture expert, came to chat with me and nothing was off the table. Thea now joins my circle of pop culture high priestesses (looking at you Erin Carlson!) as she is knowledgeable, thoughtful and really just GETS IT. Enjoy this chat, go on a re-watch or start a show you haven't watched and take this huge dose of nostalgia with you as it is just not the same as it used to be.

One of my favorites returns to Books are Chic with another one of her solo thrillers, Gone Tonight. Sarah Pekkanen had a thriving solo writing career which then catapulted when she joined forces with Greer Hendricks and their smash debut, The Wife Between Us. Gone Tonight is a wild ride with twists and turns you do not see coming. With praise from Colleen Hoover, yes THAT Colleen Hoover, this is one for your beach bags.

We talk writing, thrillers, motherhood, and lots more.
