Main Ep 6: "Why She Reads Romance" with Kelsey

This episode is PACKED to the brim with awesome stuff! This week, Kelsey (@kjacksbookshelf on IG) stops by to talk about the romance genre, the community within the genre that includes fans as well as creators, Booktok, incredible book events, and so much more. Kelsey also brings some bookish AITI stories for us to explore, and she even interviews two romance authors for the pod! Thank you to Ashley Poston (@heyashposton on IG) and Emma Lord (@dilemmalord on IG) for lending your voices to us for a bit!
