We’re going Off Book with debut romance author Katie Jung, author of You’re the One That I Haunt, a paranormal romance she describes as Gossip Girl meets My Best Friend’s Wedding with a hot ghost love interest.

Katie joins Elyse and Katy to talk about her road to publishing, bringing her Polish heritage into the book, why romance deserves more credit, and the art of writing yearning, slow burns, and sex scenes that actually sound like the characters involved.

Plus, we get into fanfiction, second-chance romance, the books that made Katie fall back in love with reading, and a truly unavoidable conversation about why nobody would ever casually say “my folds” to a friend.

You’re the One That I Haunt is out September 22.
