8. Debut Spotlight- Viktoria Lloyd-Barlow

Welcome back Bookends to the latest instalment in our Debut Spotlight series, where we shine the spotlight on some of the freshest, most exciting new authors to put on your radar. Back in January we recorded an episode with the wonderful Viktoria Lloyd-Barlow to discuss her incredible debut novel 'All The Little Bird-Hearts' which we both completely adored. Aswell as talking through her journey into being published, we discuss the importance of neurodiverse representation in a neurotypical world, why Italian folklore features so heavily in the book, mother/daughter dynamics and much, much more, we were also thrilled to find that Viktoria has the most wonderful list of recommendations for us. If you enjoyed the episode please do rate, review & subscribe as it helps us to reach other listeners.
