INTERVIEW: JEMIMA READS
from Jemima Reads:
This interview has a very special place in my heart as it is the first one I am publishing on my blog. I will be forever grateful to Lauren and her team for giving me the opportunity to do this.
An Inconvenient Daughter has become one of my favourite books. I loved it so much when I read it. I reached out to Lauren’s team with more than a few questions thinking she may answer two or three with a bit of luck. To my surprise, she took the time to answer every single one of them thoroughly.
