Annabel Monaghan - SUMMER ROMANCE

In this interview, I chat with Annabel Monaghan about Summer Romance, the term "hard pants", exploring grief as well as what it means to be a mother, multi-tasking, skateboarding, her book title, and much more.

Annabel's recommended reads are:

  1. This Summer Will Be Different by Carley Fortune
  2. Seven Summer Weekends by Jane L. Rosen
  3. Anna Bright Is Hiding Something by Susie Orman Schnall
