from Castle of Horror Podcast · host Castle Bridge Media

Tonight we're chatting with Aleese Lin, author of the debut novel Samantha Spük: Paranormal Wedding Planner, out right now from Saga Press / Simon & Schuster. This is a whimsi-goth contemporary romance — a spooky cozy, if you will — about Samantha "Sabby" Spük, a young woman who has spent her whole life trying to escape her family's legacy of supernatural chaos. She finally lands a normal nine-to-five at a New York accounting firm, but then her grandmother dies, leaves her a magically binding will, and suddenly Sabby is back in her dreaded hometown of Salem, Massachusetts — planning weddings for werewolves, vampires, and fae. The book is described as perfect for fans of Legends & Lattes and Netflix's Wednesday.Aleese is a 2022 Lambda Literary fellow, a Tin House workshop alumnus, and an educator living in the Boston area.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/castle-of-horror-podcast--4268760/support.
