In Episode 205 of Book Talk, Etc., Tina and Hannah dive into queer genre fiction! We discuss what we love about genre fiction that explores LGBTQ+ themes and characters, why these stories matter, and the importance of making them widely available for all readers.

I believe that when you (yes you) feel seen, heard and understood you’re able to deal with relationship struggles, work challenges and life’s ups and downs with more ease and grace. I interview experts, celebrities, thought leaders and athletes so that we can grow our mindset, build better habits and uncover a side of them we’ve never seen before. New episodes every Monday and Friday. Your support means the world to me and I don’t take it for granted — click the follow button and leave a review to help us spread the love with On Purpose.
