Started as a forum for discussion about YA books during the pandemic, On The Shelf is now about all types of books and talking to all types of authors. Each week host Honora Quinn virtually sits down with your new favorite author from self-published to the NYTs bestselling to ask the important questions, like what type of plate they are.
