Author Jennifer J. Williams

Get ready to party like it's 1999 in the book world! We're kicking off our rad new 'Millennial Minute' segment, where we're serving up the juiciest book trends and tropes that'll have you feeling more nostalgic than finding an old mixtape.

 

Swipe right into the world of romance as we chat with the fabulous Jennifer J. Williams!  She's dishing out more secrets than a game of "Never Have I Ever" about her writing process, character inspo, and the challenges of crafting swoon-worthy stories. It's like MTV's "Diary," but for book lovers!

We're also spilling the tea on hot new releases that'll have you staying up later than your Tamagotchi ever did. Get the 411 on Jenni Bara's "The Foul Out" and find out why T.L. Swan's "My Rules" is giving us major "She's All That" vibes.

From friends-to-lovers to bad boys gone good, we're diving deep into the tropes that keep us turning pages faster than we used to flip through a YM magazine. Whether you're Team Edward or Team Jacob (throwback, anyone?), there's something for every romance rebel in this episode.

 

Plus, Jennifer J. Williams is giving us a sneak peek at her upcoming projects that'll have you setting your alarm (old Nokia style) for release day. It's more exciting than finding out if you're a Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte, or Miranda!
