Listen Closely Playlists!
This is a post I promised @bekabloodhound some time ago and forgot to make, but here I have, for your enjoyment, not one not two but THREE tie-in playlists for my book Listen Closely!
The first is a simple list of every show mentioned in the book, either directly by name or via a description. It is missing The Magnus Archives and Wooden Overcoats, which were mentioned for plot reasons, but the name drops I peppered in throughout were chosen lovingly from some of my favourite trans-led shows, so these are the ones compiled here:
For ease, the shows in question are:
The Attic Monologues - @theatticmonologues
Night Shift - @nightshiftpodcast
Moonbase Theta, Out - @monkeymanproductions
The Night Post - @thenightpost
Hello From the Hallowoods - @hellofromthehallowoods
Monstrous Agonies - @monstrousproductions
Spirit Box Radio - @spiritboxradio
Eeler’s Choice - @eelerschoice
Tales from the Fringes of Reality - @thefringespod
(As an aside, if any of these creators would like a free copy of the book, I will be SO happy to send one out once my author copies arrive from the publisher! Please feel free to DM)
The second playlist is more recommendations beyond the ones directly mentioned in the book. This is likely missing many of my favourites, so if I’ve missed your show or a show you love, don’t be disheartened, I’ll be adding as I go! (I’ve also slightly limited this based on what I feel comfortable recommending to the readership of a teen book)
And finally, some music! I compiled this playlist while drafting, and these tracks are now inextricably linked in my mind to Jude and Aiden and their journeys. Hope you enjoy!
And if you’ve somehow missed my many posts on the subject and are wondering what the hell this is all about, this is my second novel Listen Closely, a YA rom-com about two trans kids just trying to learn how to be themselves. It’s a love-letter to audio drama, and I honestly can’t believe my publisher let me wax lyrical about my love for this medium for 80k words
A heartwarming, cozy YA romance, perfect for fans of You've Got Mail, Jenny Han, Beth Reekles, and Heartstopper, from the highly-acclaimed a
