If you've ever been inspired by the art you love,religious eroticism ecstasy of st teresa you're not alone. It happens to everyone, even editors at famous publications like Entertainment Weekly.

Or, at least, it happened to YA expert-turned-YA author Jeff Giles.

Giles is known for being the former Entertainment Weekly editor who brought in-depth YA coverage to EWin the early days of the Twilightcraze. Now he can include himself among the ranks of the YA authors he covered with the publication of his debut novel The Edge of Everything.

When a blizzard hits, and a shady man comes knocking, Zoe's life is changed and saved by a mysterious and nameless young man. This book has everything: love, death, blizzards, and escaped bounty hunters from Hell.

In a special episode of the MashReads Podcast, MashReads spoke at length with Giles about his journey from YA fan to YA author.

Join us as we talk about YA, The Edge of Everything and why YA fans are the best book fans ever.

Then, as always, we close the show with recommendations. Jeff recommends:

• Pobby and Dinganby Ben Rice, a novel about a loss and imagination in which a little girl's search for her lost imaginary friends ensnares her entire family and town. "You're riveted because it's genius," Giles explained.

• British TV shows Crashingand Fleabag, both helmed by comedian Phoebe Waller-Bridge. "She reminds me of a young Emma Thompson, if Emma Thompson was allowed to swear." The first is streaming on Netflix, the latter on Amazon.

We hope you'll join us next week as we read and discuss Zora Neale Hurston's Their Eyes Were Watching God. And if you're looking for a book to sink your teeth into, we recommend History Is All You Left Meby Adam Silvera, which is this month's official MashReads book club book.
