Amazon Affiliate Link.   Lily King talking on Books, Beach & Beyond (2025)-  on love "Love is really the most important thing to us and possibly the thing, the only thing that is going to save us from our other impulses. I am extremely concerned about the state of mind of this country and what we are allowing and what we have voted in and what we are experiencing and, in in some ways, our lack of resistance to it, and our our silence and our complicity. And it all really comes down to love. And if we lose that ability, I don't think AI is going to help us with love, I don't think Instagram is going to help us with love. I feel like all of our habits that are increasing and increasing are pulling us apart even giving us the illusion that its not, but we are, and we have to remember what it is like to love people. In all of those forms. It is the thing that makes us human. And we have to stay human." Lily King   A few of my other favorite quotes from Writers & Lovers “When my mother died, I sort of felt her inside me sometimes,' I say. ‘Like I'd swallowed her.' He laughs. ‘Swallowed her.' ‘I still have moments when I feel that, when it feels like she's inside me, and there's no difference between us or that the difference doesn't matter.” ― Lily King, Writers & Lovers   “I can tell he lost someone close somehow. You can feel that in people, an openness, or maybe it's an opening that you're talking into. With other people, people who haven't been through something like that, you feel the solid wall. Your words go scattershot off of it.” ― Lily King, Writers & Lovers   “When I was visiting her a few years ago she hugged me and said, ‘Tomorrow after you leave I will stand here at this window and remember that yesterday you were right here with me.' And now she's dead and I have that feeling all the time, no matter where I stand.” ― Lily King, Writers & Lovers   “I look into my eyes, but they aren't really mine, not the eyes I used to have. They're the eyes of someone very tired and very sad, and once I see them I feel even sadder and then I see that sadness, that compassion, for the sadness in my eyes, and I see the water rising in them. I'm both the sad person and the person wanting to comfort the sad person. And then I feel sad for that person who has so much compassion because she's clearly been through the same thing, too. And the cycle keeps repeating. It's like when you go into a dressing room with a three-paneled mirror and you line them up just right to see the long narrowing hallway of yourselves diminishing into infinity. It feels like that, like I'm sad for an infinite number of my selves.” ― Lily King, Writers & Lovers   Note: Some links are listed as Amazon Affiliate Links.

Coming home from dropping Ava off at college was really hard but the raw, unedited content that came from that heartbreak became Krista's most engaging post ever.   In this solo episode, Krista shares the story behind her viral Instagram post about sending her daughter off to college, and why it teaches us everything we need to know about creating content that truly connects. What started as 20 minutes of writing in her Notes app during one of the hardest moments of her life reached over 61k views, got 94% non-follower reach, and even earned a like from bestselling author Elin Hilderbrand!   The best content comes from the heart, not the head. It doesn't come from AI prompts or "30 pieces of content in 30 minutes" solutions. When you lead with your heart and take off the masks, you create real connection - and that's what sells.   Listen in to hear:   - The 20-minute Notes app writing session that became Krista's most viral post ever [04:49] - How one vulnerable post reached 61K views with 94% being complete strangers [15:25] - The exact metrics behind content that got 200 new follows and 873 saves [15:25] - How to turn your scariest, most vulnerable moments into your most engaging content - Why "30 pieces of content in 30 minutes" AI solutions are making everyone sound cheap and forgettable [29:20] - The Taylor Swift quote about your energy being "expensive" and how to handle critics [24:46] - Krista's simple test: "Will this help someone feel less alone?" - and why that's all that matters - And more!   ---   Join the ACORN storyselling program, Sell Anything HERE: https://www.kristademcher.com/sellanythingsignature-1   Take the "What's Your Sales Style Quiz?": https://www.kristademcher.com/sales-style-quiz   Follow us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfQNMxt1N_x6vO_dnizVu2g   Follow SHE SELLS HE SELLS on IG:: https://www.instagram.com/shesellshesellspodcast

Talked with Kristin Calder, CEO, Literacy Coalition of Palm Beach County.  "The Literacy Coalition is a not-for-profit organization committed to ensuring that every resident of Palm Beach County, Florida is able to read. Our philosophy is best expressed by Kofi Annan, former Secretary-General of the United Nations:“Literacy is a bridge from misery to hope… (it is) the road to human progress and the means through which every man, woman and child can realize his or her full potential.”  They have a variety of programs to help the community learn to read.  With the school year starting they are looking for volunteers to become reading tutors. They provide training for the Building Better Readers Tutors and have classes coming up 9/4, 9/17,10/8 and 11/3.  They also have Read with Me events and are looking for sponsors and volunteers to participate.  Read for the Record goes from 10/25 to Feb 26th.  This season they have some new fundraisers with "Author Talks" with Nikki Erlick and her book, The Measure and then Elin Hilderbrand in November.  Listeners can find out more by going to www.literacypbc.org

We often discuss auto-buy authors and completist authors around here, and today's guest is a completist on a mission to discover her new favorite summer author.  Stephanie Edwards-Gass is a seventh-grade English teacher and an Elin Hilderbrand completist. For years, she's turned to Hilderbrand's novels for summer reading satisfaction. She's read (and reread) every book in Hilderbrand's catalog, but now that there aren't any new Nantucket books to look forward to, Stephanie's on the hunt for a new go-to summer author that scratches the same itch. She's looking for stories with complex characters, a strong sense of place, lots of juicy details, and often salacious scandals.  Stephanie's already done a lot of legwork here and has a really good idea of what has and hasn't worked for her so far. Today she and Anne talk about which author (or authors) might fill this gap in Stephanie's summer reading plan. See the long list of titles mentioned today and leave your suggestions for Stephanie at our show notes page, at whatshouldireadnextpodcast.com/483.

Each has channeled their experiences into fierce advocacy and awareness, rallying others to be vigilant, informed, and empowered.With a mix of humor, heart, and actionable advice, today's Coop turns what could be a heavy topic into a lively, must-hear episode for every woman—and those who stand beside them.

Based on the novel by Elin Hilderbrand, the series stars Nicole Kidman as the matriarch of a wealthy Nantucket family that suddenly finds itself in the middle of a whodunit.

NO SPOILERS! What's summer without a good beach read? By the QUEEN of the beach read?? Kimberly was somewhat alarmed that Hilderbrand is "hanging up her bikini" but thank god we have 26 other Nantucket novels to choose from. People, Hilderbrand is SO GOOD at this stuff. Listen in to find out why her narrative stance, atmospheric elements and structure make these books so solid. (Also: Kimberly has just a few teeny quibbles). There's no such thing as "guilty pleasure" where Hilderbrand is concerned--she's just so good at this stuff!

It's summer for real now, and we're hyped for our upcoming event at Hastings House in Beverly Farms, featuring four summer-read authors. This is a legit literary genre at this point, folks. So we fire things up with Elin Hilderbrand's final (maybe) summer novel, fittingly titled "Swan Song." What makes this new literary tradition so attractive? Sam and Hannah both have thoughts, comparing her to Edith Wharton and Jane Austen. She's incredibly efficient in setting a scene and establishing character, and even created a collective first person that's incredibly effective. It leads to a discussion on voice, especially in "Fire Exit," Morgan Talty's new gritty and real novel about identity and family. It's a special novel, for sure, and you should expect it to be on all the awards lists at the end of the year. How intimately linked are our identities to our DNA? "Becoming Little Shell" has some non-fiction thoughts on this as well. We go on and on about this, kinda. It's really good.  Hannah is less enthused by "The Return of Ellie Black," by Emiko Jean, which she listened to and felt a little bit like masochism. But she did get hooked and wanted to figure out what happpens. It's a lot different from her "Tokyo Ever After," a very sweet YA book. Definitely not sweet is "The Book of Elsewhere," a book co-written by none other than Keanu Reeves and China Mieville, which is really violent, but also super interesting and thoughtful. After powering through the beginning, Sam kinda loved it. Finally, Hannah has just finished "A Good Life," a bestseller from France now in translation about two sisters in the French countryside who teamed up to survive their mom.

For many years now, Elin Hilderbrand has published a novel every summer set on the island of Nantucket.
