Laura Wood joins Charlotte and Lauren to talk about her latest YA novel The Agency for Scandal. 
Described as 'An all-female detective agency righting wrongs at the end of the nineteenth century' we could not resist diving head first into the world of Isobel Stanhope. Especially for Lauren who was once described as 'starting drama where there is none'.

Lauren got to hang out with Alex all the way back in September to talk about the book of dreams "A Taste of Gold and Iron". What better way to enjoy Queervember with the most incredible M/M romance that includes so many of the best tropes, courtly intruige and an Ottoman Empire inspired fantasy. 

This book is in Laurens top five of the year and if she could drink a potion to forget the book so she could read it again fresh she would!
