Best known for her hit young adult novels "Eleanor & Park" and "Fangirl," Rainbow Rowell has been called “the best thing to happen to young adult literature in ages” by Vox. Today, she joins The Bright Side to discuss her new book “Slow Dance,” the Reese’s Book Club pick for August.

The New York Times bestselling author opens up about who inspired the characters in her latest novel, the health scare that made her think she might never write another book, and the vital importance of unflinching storytelling for young people, especially as her early work continues to be banned. You can find “Slow Dance” on Apple Books or wherever you get your books.
