In this episode, we dive into the world of romantic comedies and their impact on author Lauren Kung Jessen, the writer behind Lunar Love. We discuss her passion for movies and food, which led her to create her blog, A Dash's of Cinema, where she whips up dishes inspired by films. As a film major in college, Lauren's love for rom-coms has shaped her views on love and relationships. We also explore the resurgence of romantic comedies in publishing and their significance in providing representation of diverse characters and experiences. We delve into the world of Lunar Love, a romantic comedy about two Chinese Zodiac matchmakers with different approaches to helping people find love. We discuss the importance of cultural elements and traditions in the book, the research process behind understanding the Chinese zodiac, and how the main character, Olivia, struggles with her beliefs and identity. Plus, we touch on the author's upcoming projects and share book recommendations across various genres. Join us as we explore the fascinating world of matchmaking, personal growth, and the power of love in Lunar Love
