We're back with more sci-fi and aliens! In this episode we get to share our interview with the amazing Ruby Dixon, and we only fangirl *slightly*…(Maybe a little more than slightly). We also talk about some of the themes that run through scifi, and why readers could love the genre so much. Thoughts? Feelings? Opinions? Email us at ragingromantics@nopl.org. And, of course, Ruby, thank you so much for giving us this interview! We had an amazing time emailing with you, and if you ever want to join us again, you are more than welcome!
