In this episode, we're joined by Jennifer Prokop, perhaps better known as @JenReadsRomance on Twitter. She's an avid romance reader and reviewer, and teaches middle school English, so she has a knack for breaking complex concepts down in a way that makes them easier to grasp. We discuss representation in romance, how to be better allies, and how uncomfortable but necessary these conversations are.
