Returning Reese’s Book Club author, Laura Dave, gives us all the earnest insights on her newest release, “The First Time I Saw Him.” Laura talks with our host, Danielle Robay, about the quotes that inspire her, the two books every aspiring writer must read, and how much (or rather, how little) she knows about the story as she’s writing it. We also get a glimpse behind the curtain into the second season of the Apple TV series, based on the book.
