About this listen

Kate Quinn’s new book, The Astral Library, is out this week and I was so excited to not only get an advanced copy but an opportunity to interview Kate Quinn.


We talk about the inspiration for this very magical book, and about books that are sanctuaries. We also talk about library advocacy, book banning, and the deadly threat of bureaucracy.


My favorite thing that Kate says: “When you love a book, it also loves you.”


You can find Kate Quinn at her website, KateQuinnAuthor.com. She’s on Instagram @KateQuinn5975.


We also mentioned:

  • Patricia C. Wrede’s Fantasy Worldbuilding Checklist
  • Sylvie’s Book Dresses on Instagram @sylviefaconcreatricefrance
  • The Tumblr post about hope that became a poem and a parody of Dr. Seuss.
