We are so excited today to be joined by Pulitzer Prize winning journalist and the author of our new fave Kpop YA novel, Alexandra Leigh Young! We read Alex's new book *Idol Gossip *and we have so many questions for her! First get Alex's Kpop origin story as is tradition before getting into a non-spoiler-y discussion of Idol Gossip. Hear about the work that went into building Alice Choy's world as a kpop trainee, Alex's real world inspiration, how she balanced actual Kpop history with fiction, and what lessons she took for more realistic portrayals of performing.
Pre-order your copy of Idol Gossip now! We have so much more with Alex coming in a super spoilery book club episode soon!!
