  • PSA: Takes authors’ money but trashes their books

    This book “supporter” has trashed hundreds of books. There’s a reason major publishers advise authors not to send Meagan books. Truly appalling.

  • Best Book Podcast out there

    Grateful for Meagan’s book club! I have been a long time follower and I have loved her previous book club discussions and now loving the long podcast format. Meagan’s reviews are always honest and spot on. I can trust her recommendations and I love that she isn’t afraid to share her true opinions. The addition of the author and audio book narrator interviews is so cool to get their insight and keeps me coming back for more. A book lovers dream!

  • Don’t work with her

    This book “supporter” has trashed hundreds of authors’ books. She’ll happily take your money, but do your research and see how little she values the hard work of writing a book. There’s a reason my publisher advised against working with her. Truly appalling.

  • New here!

    I’m a long time insta follower but new to your podcast. My first listen was your deeply personal Jan 2026 episode and I’m here for good! I’ve had a similar church life situation. Thank you for sharing your experiences so thoughtfully and meaningfully - I was in tears a few times, so many of us mamas can relate and just want to do right by our kids and raise them in a loving, accepting, encouraging family. Love this podcast so far and can’t wait to get into the new year and all these fun books wi... more

139: Chat with Annabel Monaghan
Q: How do you handle the pressures of keeping the book true to your voice without alienating readers?
Annabel shares strategies about staying true to her point of view while remaining open to feedback, suggesting that protecting one's voice is crucial to authentic storytelling.
139: Chat with Annabel Monaghan
Q: Did your editor push for trimming scenes or was it more about shaping the book as a whole?
The guest explains that editors often trim what seems like clutter or irrelevant backstory, emphasizing what serves the story and the emotional throughline, which is a common but essential part of the drafting process.
139: Chat with Annabel Monaghan
Q: So what does pub day look like for you?
Annabel talks about the May pub day with a big local launch in Ryan, New York, and describes the mix of bookstore signings and performances, followed by travel to meet readers across multiple cities.
134: Step into Middleburg Books
Q: What challenges have you faced and how have you addressed them?
She shares the fire that closed the store for 45 days, the need to rebuild inventory after the fire, and shifting to a more hands-on, conversation-driven approach rather than subscription models that didn't work for them.
134: Step into Middleburg Books
Q: How do you curate book selections and manage a small shop effectively?
She explains hyper-curation due to the small footprint, division of staff strengths (shoes of specialists in children's books, mysteries, and thinky books), and prioritizing conversations with customers over passive catalog shopping.
