Cassandra Clare's The Mortal Instruments with Amy

View descriptionShare

Amy, Co-host of Book Talk for Book Tok, joins to discuss one of the biggest online to traditional publishing success stories, Cassandra Clare's The Mortal Instruments. 

We discuss how Amy discovered Cassandra Clare through her Harry Potter fan fiction, why Clare's publishing journey meant so much to Amy, and how the books changed our view of feminism and femininity. Tangents include whether haters have the right to put artists down, chasing the thrill of the young adult books that excited us in our teenage years, and why fan fiction can make you a better writer. 

Be sure to catch me on Book Talk for Book Tok with Amy and her co-host Jac, where we discuss the first romcom I ever made, and what Shakespeare's Hamlet means to me. 

We'll be back next week with Amy's co-host, Jac, to talk about the hit fantasy romance series, A Court of Thorns and Roses (ACOTAR).
