Book Club Appetizer

On a very exciting episode of BOOKS CONNECT US, Carolina and Alyssa host their first Roundtable. Joined by Amanda Elliot (author of Sadie on a Plate and Best Served Hot) and Kosoko Jackson (author of I’m So Not Over You and Dash of Salt and Pepper), this roundtable’s theme is romance! We discuss: what it takes to craft romance -- from chemistry to characters, how the industry has grown to be more inclusive, and how author identity often plays out on the page. Stay tuned for the recap after! You can find Amanda at www.amandapanitch.com Instagram and Twitter: @amandapanitch You can find Kosoko at www.kosokojackson.com Instagram and Twitter: @kosokojackson BOOKS (and authors) MENTIONED IN TODAYS EPISODE: Books by Amanda: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/authors/2243903/amanda-elliot Books by Kosoko: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/authors/2241956/kosoko-jackson/ Well Met by Jen DeLuca: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/606854/well-met-by-jen-deluca/ Beverly Jenkins The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas Red
