Grey Sweatpants on a First Date

<p>Today we're joined by the greatest, most bookish illustrator in all the land: guest host Nicole!! Tune in to hear what items of clothing would make us storm out on a first date (spoiler alert: probably none of us would ever storm out on a first date 😇. All of this is of course followed by some excellent book discussion. And! Don't forget to 1) grab your copy of The Inheritance of Orquídea Divina for Emily's November fan club book club, and 2) check out Nicole's amazing design shop at www.istoriapress.com!
