Best known for writing crime fiction, Hall was approached by a publisher to write a fantasy novel series, which resulted in her new book. In the interview, Hall discussed how writing the fantasy novel required her to build an entire world from scratch, including creating new languages, creatures, religions, and social structures. She said it was very different from writing crime fiction where she could draw from real-world events and laws.Rachel Howzell Hall is the critically acclaimed author and Los Angeles Times Book Prize finalist for And Now She's Gone.

'I didn't believe that I'd stalked my partner.' In episode 101, we speak with debut author Khin Myint about the multiple strands of biography he explores in his memoir Fragile Creatures. One of these is the sudden and extreme betrayal he faced from his ex-partner, who accused him of stalking her. We also discuss the ambiguous illness his sister Theda lived with for years, at times diagnosed as depression, CFS/ME and chronic Lyme disease, and how she chose to end her life after thirteen years of symptoms and divisiveness. We also consider whether our societal silence around suicide is potentially contribuiting to its rise. Khin also describes how he came to understand masculinity as a shadow, a pressure that follows men and ultimately shapes them. He asks, 'What is this pressure that socialises boys to adhere to some of these toxic expectations of maleness?' Fragile Creatures is a must-read memoir, and this conversation is only the tip of more than one culturally urgent conversation. Plus in What Are You Reading, we chat about a surprising number of speculative fiction titles. Khin Myint is an author based in Perth. His writing has appeared in The Sydney Morning Herald, Liminal and The West Australian, and more. He was selected as one of ten participants in the Wheeler Centre's Next Chapter scheme in 2021. His debut memoir is Fragile Creatures.

The 3rd book of this series was the receiver of the coveted Kirkus Star. One more book from the same series was included in the list of the Los Angeles Times' top books to read in the summer. The New York Times has praised the chief protagonist of the series, Elousie Norton, by describing her as a formidable fighter and a person that everyone would want to have by their side.

Hall used to fill her notebooks, loose leaf papers, her brother's yearbook, and in church bulletins. She never used to write on freeway overpasses, buildings, or walls as she used to consider it as graffiti. For a period of 4 years, author Hall has lived in Santa Cruz. The episode also includes a brief conversation with founding director Steph Opitz, about the origins of the 1st Wordplay Festival.
Summary: Happy National Autism Awareness Month! Today, Holly and Devin discuss books with neurodivergent protagonists. They agree that all kinds of diversity in books are not only important but provide a helpful and enjoyable window into the lives of folkx with whom you haven't interacted (yet). Holly shared some key things to look out for in neurodivergent writing - avoiding stereotypes, ensuring there's diversity of gender, sexuality and race, avoiding infantilizing neurodivergent characters, and being especially cautious in sci-fi with aliens who are just caricatures of people on the autism spectrum. (Credit to a BookRiot article by Susie Rodarme and a Medium article by Cassie Josephs) Topics Discussed: The Heart (3:49): Devin discussed The Kiss Quotient by Helen Hoang, a steamy gender-bent play on tropes found in Pretty Woman. Stella Lane is a rock star data scientist with a career she loves. On the autism spectrum, she has always thought of kissing as “a shark getting its teeth cleaned by a pilot fish,” but she is looking for love and marriage. Her solution? Hire an escort to teach her everything she needs to know for her future husband. Devin's key takeaways were: Helen Hoang self-diagnosed being on the autism spectrum through research and working with a therapist in 2016. While Stella is also on the spectrum and it is a big driver of the premise, Hoang ensures that Stella isn't mocked, belittled, etc. at any point because of her autism, nor is it used as a reason for conflict in the book. Michael Phan, the escort that Stella hires, has his own motivations for agreeing to work with Stella longer term; his mother is battling cancer and the bills are piling up. While Stella sees Michael as the powerful one in their dynamic for already being great at sex, Michael respects Stella's career, her stability and her attitude toward life's challenges and ultimately no one character is seeking the upper hand - a refreshing, balanced take on classic tropes Because Stella is hypersensitive and often struggles to be touched, the book focuses a lot around consent. Michael respects her boundaries and waits until she's ready for every single step they take physically, but he's also verbally describing his intent and what he's going to do nonstop. This beautiful show of consistent requesting of consent adds an extra spicy layer of dirty talk that readers will love. The Dagger (17:11): Holly discussed The Good Sister by Sally Hepworth, a mystery-thriller published in 2020 by the Australian author. The book follows fraternal twins Fern and Rose who are very close but very, very different. Fern hasn't been formally diagnosed but has sensory issues and a very literal interpretation of the world around her. Rose is an interior designer who has been trying to get pregnant to no avail. Rose takes care of Fern in many ways, but how close are they really? Holly's key takeaways were: Through her research, Holly found that the representation of someone on the autism spectrum is quite great. Hepworth has shared that she has neurodiversity in her family including autism, ADHD, and sensory processing disorder. The diversity of symptoms and experiences is key in the novel and deftly handled. All of the characters, especially Fern, are incredibly real-feeling and round. It doesn't take long to get deeply invested as we learn that Rose and Fern's mother was very narcissistic and they suffered from homelessness and some abuse; this culminates in a traumatic event the sisters experienced at age 12 that impacted the rest of their lives. This book explores the power and danger of vulnerability and kindness. Fern's literal interpretation of the world sets her on a path to get pregnant herself; since Rose is struggling and they are twins, she figures she can just get pregnant on her own and hand the baby off to Rose as a gift. What ensues demonstrations Hepworth's ability to balance tense and unsettling relationships with the beauty and power of deep bonds.

Welcome to Chapter 15 of the Okie Bookcast! We're celebrating National School Libraries Month by talking with a couple of amazing Oklahoma librarians! Jill Slay is the librarian at Putnam City West High School in Oklahoma City. Jill has been an educator for 23-ish years and was a high school English teacher before moving into the Library about 10 years ago. She is currently working on her doctorate in Education in Curriculum Studies and Supervision. You can connect with Jill on Twitter (@msjillslay11) and Instagram (@jillslay11) and also check out her library on Twitter (@PCWlibrary) or Instagram (@pcwestlibrary). Eric Dabney is the librarian at Orvis Risner Elementary in Edmond, OK. As a longtime researcher and editor for prolific author Bob Burke, Eric spent more than two decades rediscovering his home state over kitchen-table interviews and the family photo albums of many of its favorite sons and daughters including Gary England, Abe Lemons, Jane Jayroe, and George Nigh. He is the co-author of several books and taught in the education department at UCO for more than a decade. Eric began his career in public school education as a first-grade teacher at Orvis Risner Elementary in Edmond in 2014 and later moved down the street to Central Middle School, where he taught 7th-grade English and Literacy. He returned to Orvis Risner as the school's librarian in 2019. Married to Shelley for 30 years, the couple lives on a farm northeast of Edmond, where they raised three daughters and are now very happy grandparents. You can check out one of the videos Eric made reading to his students here. We had so much to talk about in this conversation that I've split it into two episodes. In this part one, we talk about their libraries, the role of librarians in the greater school community, and helping kids fall in love with reading. Part Two of our conversation is also available in Chapter 16. Our review for this chapter is from Shereen Rasor - Shereen has been a teacher in Mustang Public Schools for 28 years and a school librarian for 10 years. She is married to her high-school sweetheart and is the mother of two sons, both in the military, and the grandmother of the two cutest kids ever! Her favorite past times are reading, horseback riding, and motorcycle riding… especially if she gets to do these things on the beach.Shereen reviews The Good Sister by Sally Hepworth.Mentioned on the Show:Orca Soundings Collection Jason ReynoldsJudy Blume AviTreasure Island - Robert Louis StevensonWonder - R.

A wedding ceremony is pierced by a scream, that sets the scene for Sally Hepworth's latest suspenseful thriller, THE YOUNGER WIFE, told by alternating narrators. Full of the twists and unreliable family memories and histories Hepworth is famous for, her new novel focuses on two sisters, Tully and Rachel, and how their lives change when they meet their seemingly perfect father's new fiancée, Heather. Sally returns to the podcast to discuss the book, post-pandemic life, and the challenges (and joys) of reading books, in addition to writing them. In A Moment With Margaret, Margaret and Olivia discusses the Australian narrators of THE YOUNGER WIFE audiobook, true crime stories like Paul Holes' UNMASKED: MY LIFE SOLVING AMERICA'S COLD CASES, Erika Krouse's TELL ME EVERYTHING, and themes that are touched on similarly to TALKING TO STRANGERS by Malcolm Gladwell. Recommending two works of fiction for those who like to read true crime: Liz Moore's LONG BRIGHT RIVER and Paula McLain's WHEN THE STARS GO DARK. THE YOUNGER WIFE is released by St. Martin's Press on April 5, 2022. THE GOOD SISTER is now available in paperback.
Sally Hepworth is the New York Times bestselling author of six prior novels, including The Good Sister, The Mother-In-Law, and The Younger Wife is out now! ** After Sally describes The Younger Wife as yet another story of “really dysfunctional families,” Sally tells us about the sisters, Tully and Rachel. Apparently for Sally, the most “wild character” comes first, which we loved hearing about. (03:33) ** Then there is Heather, the younger wife. Sally shares how she intentionally bucks the trope of this cliche in the creation of this novel and this character. (07:02) ** The inspiration for this book is one of the best ever - it involves younger wives and a hot water bottle full of cash. Intrigued? You should be! The confluence of things that came together for Sally to inspire this book is incredibly entertaining! (09:40) ** Sally is exceedingly funny and her social media presence is endlessly optimistic, but Sally gets candid about her personal stories of rejection. Somehow this veers into the most hysterical conversation about a swingers party that you will ever hear! (15:45) ** We discuss the ingredients of what makes a Sally Hepworth book. Yet again, we end up laughing hysterically at a story Sally shared about her own loving, yet dysfunctional, family dynamics. (27:33) ** Sally is Gemini and Carinn relates this back to her relationship with her Gemini husband. (32:16) ** Carinn and Sally agree about the pressures of having to go outside when it's sunny. T-shirts that say “we are not trolls” will be forthcoming. (36:28) ** We discuss Sally's social media, her “Writerly Wednesdays”, and how she posts authentically. (39:50) ** Sally shares what she is loving right now and a theme emerged involved fraudsters. (43:21) Follow us on Instagram and Facebook @popfictionwomen and on Twitter @pop_women.

Stick around for the aftershow when our friend Diane Chamberlain visits to discuss her brand-new novel THE LAST HOUSE ON THE STREET, coming to bookstores everywhere on January 11th.
This month on the podcast Gabriella discusses books she's read. Note that there is a spoiler warning for, The Silent Patient, The Good Sister, Nightengale, Migrations, Once there were Wolves, The Hate U Give, One of Us is Lying, Daisy Cooper's rules for living, While no one is watching, etc. . . . . . . . . .It takes a lot to edit these podcasts.
Sally Hepworth is a best-selling author of seven novels. Her 2020 novel, "The Good Sister" was an instant best-seller and her 2019 novel, "The Mother-in-Law" has been optioned for a TV series by Hollywood actress and producer, Amy Poehler. Sally's books are available all over the world and have been translated into 20 languages. "The Younger Wife" is Sally's most recent novel (published by Pan Macmillan). This is a compulsive, must-read novel that had me turning pages into the early hours. A terrifically engrossing domestic thriller about a garage full of stolen goods, a hot water bottle stuffed with cash and a blood-soaked wedding. I had so much fun chatting with Sally on the podcast a while back.

When Sally Hepworth's “The Good Sister” was released in April, it became an instant New York Times bestseller. Available now in paperback, this suspenseful thriller about twin sisters Fern and Rose is summer escape at its finest (be warned, you may chew your nails.) Sally spoke with Olivia about crafting the dual narratives, how organically the character of Fern came to the story, the part of her writing process that is like “a dagger to the heart” for other writers, and self-expression through fashion. “The Good Sister” is published by St. Martin's Press. In A Moment with Margaret, Margaret shares which thrillers she'll be reading this summer from authors she's enjoyed in the past: “The Maidens” by Alex Michaelides, “Survive the Night” by Riley Sager, and “The Perfect Family” by Robyn Harding. These books are released in June, July, and August, respectively.

Why you gotta be so rude, cicadas, seeing stars, earth day cookies, and drunk Easter
The bookworms are back and better than ever...well, almost. This week they discuss Sally Hepworth's, The Good Sister.
The Good Sister: Book By Sally Hepworth "Hepworth's latest further solidifies her place among the top domestic suspense authors...Fern is drawn as smart, capable, and probably on the spectrum, and she is multilayered and relatable, illustrating Hepworth's talent for page-turners with depth."-- Booklist "It's a warped tale of twisted memories and skewed perceptions that will make fans of psychological thrillers say, 'Wow, I didn't see that coming.'"--Library Journal Website: https://gobookmart.com --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/gobookmart-review/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/gobookmart-review/support
Sally Hepworth, the New York Times bestselling author of The Good Sister, joins Carol Fitzgerald from Australia to talk about her latest domestic thriller, which also is a Bookreporter Bets On selection. In The Good Sister, there are twin sisters --- Fern and Rose. Fern, who has behavior issues which allude to being on the autism spectrum, always has relied upon her twin, Rose. When Fern discovers that Rose cannot get pregnant, Fern decides to pay Rose back for everything she's done for her by bearing her a child. This means finding the right man, one who won't disrupt her calculated routine. In her attempts, Fern stirs up things in the past that may have been better left hidden. The tagline on the cover hints to the sinister nature of what will go on --- “everyone has a dark side.” In their conversation, Sally talks to Carol about her inspiration for this novel, its lovely dedication, and her adventures with her own family during lockdown in Melbourne, many of which were hilariously documented on Instagram. They also talk about Sally’s writing process and what’s next for her. This is the second time that Carol has interviewed Sally, and this conversation was just as much fun as their last one about THE MOTHER-IN-LAW.

When Rose discovers that she cannot fall pregnant, Fern sees her chance to pay her sister back for everything Rose has done for her. Fern can have a baby for Rose. She just needs to find a father. Simple. Fern's mission will shake the foundations of the life she has carefully built for herself and stir up dark secrets from the past, in this quirky, rich and shocking story of unexpected love.

We're in Denmark today, to meet a Good Sister and a Bad Sister. The Good Sister has a son, but the Bad Sister wins him in a berry picking contest. When the son goes to the bad side of the mountain, he'll learn the truth of his birth and take care of the Bad Sister. Unfortunately, he's still stuck with the Bad Sister's daughter, and she'll keep him on his toes. For sources and links, support us on Patreon, or follow on Twitter. Our theme music is from Carnaval des Animaux, performed by Aitua.
Welcome to Episode 27. My point of view is more on the podcast today, if you don't mind spoilers I've left the written synopsis here..... From the outside, everyone might think Fern and Rose are as close as twin sisters can be: Rose is the responsible one and Fern is the quirky one. But the sisters are devoted to one another and Rose has always been Fern's protector from the time they were small. Fern needed protecting because their mother was a true sociopath who hid her true nature from the world, and only Rose could see it. Fern always saw the good in everyone. Years ago, Fern did something very, very bad. And Rose has never told a soul. When Fern decides to help her sister achieve her heart's desire of having a baby, Rose realizes with growing horror that Fern might make choices that can only have a terrible outcome. What Rose doesn't realize is that Fern is growing more and more aware of the secrets Rose, herself, is keeping. And that their mother might have the last word after all...... Well that's all for now .... until next time ... bye

Welcome back and happy start of summer everyone!We kick off December with a truly incredible guest, best-selling author, Sally Hepworth. Raised in Brighton, Sally now resides in Black Rock after multiple addresses around the world. Maree sits down with Sally to talk about her writing process (notably snack and lunch choices), and we relive Sally's progression through study and work that led to becoming a best-selling author and executive producer for a future Hollywood adaption of The Mother in Law. We discuss how feedback shapes Sally's work and how she has built a strong network of Australian authors which can be relied on to vent or bounce ideas off of. Sally lets us in on the details of her breakfast with Amy Poehler in which they discussed the television adaption in the process by Poehler's production company, Paper Kite, and again we focus on what's most important (breakfast orders). Maree eagerly unearths some secrets from Sally's latest release, The Good Sister, a novel with some very familiar locations for those of us Baysiders. Remember, if you would like the chance to win a signed copy head over to our Facebook page and let us know we sent you!

Well, what a surprise. Sales has received some personal blowback for her recent excoriation of anyone who's ever given her a scented candle. Crabb enjoys Sales' shame but has also recently killed her laptop with duck fat so... swings, roundabouts. Sales is loving the new Judd Apatow series Love and is permitted two minutes ONLY on the Song Exploder episode with Lin Manuel Miranda. Meanwhile Crabb has hugely enjoyed Meg Mason's Sorrow and Bliss, and has a weird new crush on Nick Kyrgios thanks to Reputation Rehab on the ABC.

That's what she reckons anyway, though Crabb has left open a legally-enforceable (with the right lawyer) defence for saving them in this discussion of self-analysis arising from Sales' recent reading of a novel about group therapy. Setting their own petty scribblings aside however, Sales and Crabb have each read a "major publishing event" novel; Sales has done Richard Flanagan's latest and Crabb is all over Trent Dalton's keenly-awaited second novel.

At the beginning of Rachel Howzell Hall's latest crime novel, AND NOW SHE'S GONE, a fledgling black female private investigator, Gray Sykes, is trying to find a client's girlfriend who has disappeared. The client, an arrogant doctor, seems more concerned about Gray retrieving his dog who disappeared with his girlfriend, than the girlfriend. But as the novel progresses it weaves a second storyline of another young woman that disappeared. With these two storylines, Hall weaves a tale of secrets, fear, and violence while sprinkling her protagonist with small flaws that makes Gray an endearing character that lightens the mood of the novel at times. Rachel Howzell Hall, author of the bestseller THEY ALL FALL DOWN and writes the acclaimed Lou Norton series which features a black female Los Angeles homicide detective. She is also the co-author with James Patterson of the novel The Good Sister.

"There is no 'answer.' But Eleanor is the answer." If you didn't love this episode, go walk into the ocean!!!
