This week I'm joined by fellow BookTok creator Supportive Dad Reads for a wide-ranging conversation about reading, community, and breaking genre expectations. We dive into his journey back to novels after years of exclusively reading comics and graphic novels, and explore his reading journey that spans all the way back to his teenage years. As two content creators and girl dads, we discuss what drew us to BookTok, the genuine community we've found through creating content, and how both our reading lives and online presence have evolved. We get real about being newer to romance and spicy genres. How they're completely different than what we expected, and why people who judge these genres often do so from a place of insecurity. This conversation covers everything from parenting to content creation, reading habits to genre exploration, with plenty of laughs and honest reflection along the way. Perfect for anyone curious about romance, interested in the BookTok creator experience, or just wants to hear two dads geek out about books.
