Emma Rosenblum, BAD SUMMER PEOPLE

Zibby is joined by debut author and Bustle Digital Group chief content officer Emma Rosenblum to discuss Bad Summer People, a whip-smart, stylish, propulsive, and darkly comedic beach community satire that brings infidelity, backstabbing, and murderous intrigue to Fire Island. Emma talks about her fascinating cast of characters and Signal, the perfect app for cheaters! She describes how much she loved writing fiction–an escape from her career in magazine writing–and explains how she went from rough draft to a two-book deal and Hollywood interest. Purchase on Zibby's Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3OVQf67Purchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3OTA6xWSubscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.Purchase Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books merch here.** Want more?
