Today I'm joined by author Renee Carlino, to chat about her new novel, “This Used To Be Us”. 
 
 Renee was my first guest EVER on this podcast just over 2 years ago, so I was so excited to welcome her back on the show!! I have loved every single book of hers to date, and knew I would love her latest release just as much. 

We spoke in depth about her film background and what it’s been like adapting her books to the screen (her novel “Wish You Were Here” will be released in 2025, with Julia stiles’ directorial debut!) - and how she manages to write all of her novels so cinematically. 

The highlight of this episode for me was getting to ask Renee all about her writing process for this newest release in particular (without any spoilers!), especially focusing on the different storytelling techniques, and her inspiration for the story.

I truly loved this episode so much, and am sure you will too! Make sure to check out Renee’s backlist, as well as her newest novel out right now!
