Read with Jenna's July pick! Chris Whitaker, ALL THE COLORS OF THE DARK

New York Times bestselling author Chris Whitaker joins Zibby to discuss ALL THE COLORS OF THE DARK, a haunting and unforgettable missing person mystery, serial killer thriller, and sweeping love story, all in one (and the Read With Jenna Book Club pick!). Chris explains the premise of his novel: two abducted teenagers fall in love in a pitch-black basement… and when the boy escapes, he spends the next 27 years looking for the girl. Chris delves into the personal traumas that shaped his life and inspired this story—including experiences with childhood abuse—and how important it has been for him to take control of his own narrative. Then, he hints at his next project!Purchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3xyDwQtShare, rate, & review the podcast, and follow Zibby on Instagram @zibbyowens! Now there's more!
