Amanda and Dayelle are diving into Long Bright River by Liz Moore. This one took us on a ride we weren’t expecting. A gripping mix of crime thriller, family drama, and emotional depth, this book had us hooked from page one. And just when we thought we had our opinions locked in, the new screen adaptation dropped on Peacock, shaking things up even more. Did it do the novel justice? Were the characters as compelling on screen as they were on the page? And most importantly should you watch it or read it?
Oh, and we were supposed to interview Liz Moore herself… but let’s just say, plans took an unexpected turn. We’ll spill all the details in the episode!
