Launching A Book In A Pandemic, Part II

 

Karen White, audiobook narrator and author of What I’m Looking For (under the name Karen Grey), returns to The Readerly Report to talk about reading and launching her new book in the middle of coronavirus. We also talk about #BlackLivesMatter and the changes the movement is bringing about in the book industry, particularly in the audiobook and romance writing worlds. Like many others, Gayle is committing to reading more authors of color going forward to broaden her perspective and promote diverse voices.
