In this chapter of Open Book, I’m joined by my mom, Maria, to discuss our favorite books and reading habits.
Maria shares her love for historical fiction, especially period dramas and World War narratives, and provides insights into how she selects her books, often influenced by covers and word of mouth. The discussion also touches on the accuracy and immersive qualities of historical fiction, the differences between books and their adaptations, and the importance of connecting with authors on social media.
Maria offers recommendations for encouraging readers to discover new authors, suggests bundling bestsellers with debut authors at a discount, and highlights the value of building personal brands for authors. The episode wraps up with Maria reflecting on the books that made her a reader and her practice of getting immersed in book series.
