On today’s episode, Adam chats with the incredible Brandy Colbert. Brandy’s well known for her debut novel Pointe and her latest book Little & Lion was just released. Brandy and Adam discuss diversity in YA novels, the importance of being able to find characters like yourself in books and what goes into creating her characters. 

We can’t recommend Little & Lion enough. It’s an incredibly powerful book about understanding and the strength of family bonds. Give a listen!
