It seems that monsters have been hanging around Furthermore lately. Join me and guest Jess Harwick as we peek at Akwaeke Emezi's National Book Award nominated Young Adult novel, Pet. What lies in store for us in this pink and gold etched, girl-in-her-pajamas- covered novel? Jess and I chat about the state of YA and that term in general, whether or not razor blades in a painting is a good idea and why so many adults are reading books for kids. Did we delve in or shelve Emezi's rapidly rising world where, until one climbs out of a canvas, all monsters are no more? 

Thanks to Jess for joining me and thank you for listening to Furthermore! Remember to find us on Instagram, @furthermorepodcast and go check out Furthermore artist Max Farinato at maxfarinato.com.
