Katie Sise, YOU MUST BE NEW HERE

Bestselling author Katie Sise returns to the podcast to discuss YOU MUST BE NEW HERE, a dark and twisty suspense novel about a friendship that is put to the test when a young woman disappears from a quiet community. Katie dives into her novel’s themes of intoxicating, magnetic friendships; motherhood; divorce; and the emotional weight of raising a medically fragile child. She also shares how her own family’s experiences with loss and illness shaped the story, as well as her improvisational writing style, love of teen characters, and commitment to telling emotionally resonant, twisty stories.Purchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/40FTx2xShare, rate, & review the podcast, and follow Zibby on Instagram @zibbyowens!** Want more?
