Avery Carpenter Forrey & 'Social Engagement': Complicated Conversations Series

Published: May 23, 2023, 10 a.m.

On this episode of Complicated Conversations, we welcome Avery Carpenter Forrey to discuss her debut novel, SOCIAL ENGAGEMENT, a novel that explores millennial wedding culture, class, and relationships, all filtered through the ever-present lens of social media.\n\nWe chat with Avery about the development of Callie and her perfect narrator status as an insider/outsider; complicated female friendship; the connection between memory and social media; the thin line between the one that got away and a toxic ex you should probably stop thinking about; the good, bad and ugly of wedding culture today; her path to publication; and our shared obsessions like Taylor Swift and astrology.\n\nThis conversation is a FUN one you don\u2019t want to miss, just like Social Engagement. Buy it, read it, share it, and listen to your spoiler-free chat with Avery wherever you get your podcasts!\nSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.\nLearn more about your ad choices.
