On the eve of the release her second novel, The Scott Fenwick Diaries, we’re talking with someone we know who knows a LOT about the importance of all types of crushing as well being incredibly insightful about all THE FEELINGS that come along with them, our very own Kristin Nilsen! (Seriously, she was (and still is) all of us at age 12!) The Scott Fenwick Diaries is more than just a middle-grade novel about a first crush, it’s ALL OF OUR first crushes. (Who knew we were all feeling the same insecurities?!?) Join us as we chat about the incredible relatability of the book, talk about Kristin’s writing process with this second novel, share our favorite parts and our own first crush stories, and so much more!
