Kristin Hannah

In this episode, Elin and Tim speak with the incomparable Kristin Hannah, author of The Nightingale, Firefly Lane, and The Four Winds. Kristin discusses her origin story (did you know she wrote a novel with her mom that will never be published?) and the three chat about crying while reading books, labels in literature, "blurbing" other authors’ books, characters pushed to the extremes, Hollywood adaptations, and more. It’s a real deep dive into this beloved writer’s world!A special thank you to our Episode Sponsors:The Nantucket HotelTriple Eight DistilleryKristin Hannah Reading List:A Handful of Heaven by Kristin HannahOn Mystic Lake by Kristin HannahFirefly Lane by Kristin HannahThe Nightingale by Kristin HannahThe Great Alone by Kristin HannahThe Four Winds by Kristin HannahThe Women by Kristin HannahWhat else are we reading in this episode:Every Last One by Anna QuindlenA Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara Hamnet by Maggie O’FarrellThe Matchmaker by Elin Hilderbrand28 Summers by Elin HilderbrandWinter Solstice by Elin HilderbrandWe Begin at the End by Chris WhitakerYellowface by R.F.
