Today the girls are joined by the, very special, Alison Cochrun, to discuss her newest book, "Here We Go Again". Alison also discusses her journey into writing queer romance, discovering her sexuality, and writing through grief and loss.

Like every book club episode, there will be SPOILERS, so make sure you get a chance to read "Here We Go Again" before listening! You won't want to miss out. You can buy your copy here.

You can find Alison at her website or on Instagram @alisoncochrun. You can find us on Instagram & Tiktok @notboringbookclub.

Join us again next month to discuss "Those We Thought We Knew" by David Joy. Content warning for racial violence.

To kick off this March episode the girls catch up on recent TV/movie viewings, including their favorite Oscars Noms. This episode also serves as their formal application to be hired on "Below Deck". Do they have experience? No. Do they have enthusiasm? Absolutely.

As for this month's book club pick, the girls have chosen a particularly disturbing read: "Gone to See the River Man" by Kristopher Triana. This one is not for the faint of heart... and major trigger warning for CSA.

Come back next month for to discuss Alison Cochrun's new release, "Here We Go Again"!
