Seriously wow. Episode number 7 y'all. I hope you enjoy sitting down with Antonella on @shitshereads. We go a little off topic, but not even? We discuss our shared love for Stephen Graham Jones, how book twitter goes off, asking, "why do you hate books?" (hate is a strong word?), her legendary quote, “my habit is having no habit,” our tiny hands and rooting each other on for reading horror books (because it was my first dip in the water).
She has become one of my favorite people. I freakin' love Antonella and being connected with her on bookstagram! Follow her at @shitshereads to keep up. Stay tuned for her IG takeover this Friday, October 29th and her booklist release coming this Wednesday, October 27th.
