HAPPY HALLOWEEN FRIENDS! We hope you’re having a very spooky day! Today, we are so excited to talk with our friend Stephanie from Books in the Freezer - a podcast dedicated to horror books. We talk about the fact that Mollie and Katie are big scaredy cats and don’t read much horror (well, Mollie never, and Katie rarely) and how to dip your toes into the genre if you never have before. Stephanie is SO much fun and SO articulate. We hope you enjoy listening to her talk about this particular branch of fiction and why she finds it so compelling!
Follow Stephanie and Books in the Freezer!
