Zibby speaks to author Karin Lin-Greenberg about You Are Here, a charming and poignant novel about five characters whose stories entwine when a shopping mall shuts down. Karin details her inspiration for the book, which came during a haircut, and then explains how a standalone short story quickly grew into an entire world. Karin also discusses her path to teaching, the impact of the pandemic on young people, and the distinctions between writing fiction and nonfiction. Finally, Zibby and Karin chat about the roles of malls in their own lives.Purchase on Zibby's Bookshop: bit.ly/3ozz9jyPurchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3N6IqcFSubscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.Purchase Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books merch here.
