To kick the month off I’m honored to share TWO interviews with y’all today one with Claribel A. Ortega about the fourth book in her middle grade series Witchlings, called Scepter of Memories, and another with Ryan La Sala about his latest YA novel The Dead of Summer! The interviews were conducted separately but on the same day so this pair of books, while so drastically different has always had this link in my head. I’m hoping there’s something for everyone here as we get deeper into the fall and I hope you enjoy!
