And so my friend who had 178 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 5: set me up for the take the drinks, she was. 179 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:52,679 Speaker 1: Doing it with me. 180 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 3: No, she's trying you look good. Maybe maybe it was 181 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,080 Speaker 3: bad firing with Becca because she was like, oh my gosh, 182 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:00,079 Speaker 3: she's a place. 183 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 4: And so setting her up with my sister, I'll show her. 184 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 4: So it was. 185 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,680 Speaker 5: It was a wild moment where these like women kept 186 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,839 Speaker 5: coming up to the table. But anyway, so that moment 187 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:19,200 Speaker 5: in our life was I kind of like brought into this. 188 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 3: Book, how Ivy and Freya? 189 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:25,080 Speaker 5: Yes, yes, And I guess getting into the book more 190 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 5: just to set up the scene. So Ivy again hyperreality 191 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:34,200 Speaker 5: in the sense of like America's more progressive than Europe 192 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 5: at this time and England, and so Ivy and her 193 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 5: brother Prescott from America, they moved to England to find 194 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,719 Speaker 5: him a wife because the only way to guarantee his 195 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 5: inheritance is to marry a woman in England, because our 196 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 5: father was from England. And so we meet the Talent 197 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 5: sisters and there's a bunch of sisters and a couple 198 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 5: of them are queer, and there's this character named Freya 199 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 5: and is one of the few sisters left to marry, 200 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 5: and so she has a lot of pressure to marry 201 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 5: a man because they need to continue the family line. 202 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 3: And so that's kind of the setup. 203 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 5: And so we go to England to kind of set 204 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 5: him up with one of the town sisters and then 205 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 5: my character ends up falling. 206 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 3: In love with her. How does it end. 207 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 4: You'll have to prove the buyer. 208 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:32,320 Speaker 2: It doesn't end, but maybe that season two or book two, yeah, 209 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 2: book the sequel. 210 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 3: Yeah. So yeah, So that's kind of the setup of 211 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 3: of the story. 212 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 5: So it's like loosely based off of our meet cute 213 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 5: and then obviously it's been really you know, Beca's been 214 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 5: able to tell our story a lot, and so this 215 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 5: was kind of my way of telling my experience through 216 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 5: the character's eyes of Ivy and navigating you know, meeting 217 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 5: you know, these sisters and Freya and like having my 218 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:01,560 Speaker 5: world turn up side down. And she's like this sapphog 219 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 5: poet in the Victorian era, and so she's like this 220 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 5: known lesbian poet, and so the younger sister like knows 221 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:10,679 Speaker 5: of her. Like, so I was trying to find like 222 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 5: little things to like have little throwbacks. But but Yeah, 223 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 5: it's really fun. 224 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 3: It's really fun, and it's three hundred pages. 225 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 5: I think the fonts it's hya so the font you know, 226 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 5: it's a quick read why young adults, oh. 227 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 3: Words, So I appreciate, but yeah, it does have to 228 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:34,559 Speaker 3: spoiler alert. 229 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:37,719 Speaker 5: It does have a hopeful ending. And for me growing up, 230 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 5: all of our queer representation ended in like suicide or 231 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 5: death or like in love and like really having to 232 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:51,439 Speaker 5: hide our relationship celebrated exactly. And so I was really 233 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 5: inspired by the concept of, like, Okay, what if you 234 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 5: could be gay, but you're still not equal as women, 235 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 5: and you're still struggling to to thrive in an economy 236 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 5: in a world, and so what does that look like 237 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:08,959 Speaker 5: and how do you find your joy and happiness? When 238 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 5: maybe I also liked the idea of like, you know, 239 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 5: I think everyone can, whether you're queer or not, anyone 240 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,960 Speaker 5: can relate to this love story because I think every 241 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 5: single person is born with parents who have expectations of 242 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 5: who they're going to end up with, right, whether it's 243 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 5: your religion, whether it's your culture, whether it's your background, 244 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 5: and it always it's always gonna be challenging to navigate 245 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 5: regardless of those expectations and the disappointments, and so I 246 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 5: also really loved having just something so relatable in that 247 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 5: sense where you can pick this up and read it 248 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 5: and see yourself in it, and sometimes you know, the 249 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 5: happy ending isn't like everything works out. The happy ending 250 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 5: is like, we're going to figure this out together and 251 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 5: we're going to like persevere through the hardships. 252 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 1: I do think it's super relatable, you know, stepping outside 253 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 1: of the queer community, like I was saying, I also 254 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 1: experienced some of that, Like I never thought in a 255 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 1: million years I would end up. 256 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 3: With a divorced Jewish dad, you know what I mean. 257 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 3: And so it's just I think it is going to 258 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 3: be really relatable to a lot of people. 259 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the whole concept is like, outside of 260 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 2: being queer, there's so many other things that people navigate 261 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 2: to be together and that they have to go through 262 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,839 Speaker 2: with family or expectations or whatever that leads to that 263 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,559 Speaker 2: decision of are we doing this together or are we 264 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 2: gonna wonder what if for the rest of our lives? 265 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 2: Like take obviously this is focused on queer a queer 266 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 2: love story, but I do think a lot of people 267 00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 2: can resonate with like differences of religion and beliefs everything. 268 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 4: You're going on a book tour, I am, I'm not going. 269 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 3: To Ye, it's a big deal.
