Welcome back Bookends to our May Book Club episode! Today we chat about the first in an exciting new Queer crime series 'Scorched Grace' by the incredible Margot Douaihy.
Unfortunately for this episode, Lydia was in the midst of an illness so was unable to record so Hannah was a singular bookend but was joined by Margot to chat all about her fantastic, compelling debut, the inspiration behind it, her upbringing as a Maronite Catholic and how that informed her writing, Queerness, complex characters and can we get information on the TV/Film adaptation?! Find out more by giving this episode a listen and if you enjoy please do rate, review & subscribe so we can reach more listeners!

I'm talking to Nathan Bush on Book Talk Radio Club. Nathan is the author of The Foley Chronicles: Files from the 8th District, what he calls a faith-based crime series, with an attitude. Nathan has been writing since middle/high school, where he was involved with the school newspaper and literary magazine but didn't publish his first full length novel until 2016. His goal in writing is simply to entertain his readers and to grow a loyal fan base to spread the word about his stories. He currently resides in Alabama with his wife and five children, where he landed after his enlistment in the Army came to a conclusion. He and his wife spent ten years working with teenagers in the church, before moving on to devote more time to their special needs daughter.
