The B&n Ya Podcast

I'm not Dying with You Tonight is the story of two high school seniors who find themselves thrown together when a fight at a sporting event ignites into widespread violence of a kind that's become heartbreakingly familiar.  As events spiral out of control, Lena and Campbell — who are most certainly not friends — will need each other to make it through the night, get to safety and pick up the pieces.  It's a propulsive story that unfolds over the course of hours, but the conversations that readers are going to want to have — about racism, prejudice and reality, and what it means to cross seemingly enormous divides between us — are going to go on for a long time.  We were so lucky to have authors Kimberly Jones and Gilly Segal with us to talk about their enthralling debut — they dropped into the studio just as I'm Not Dying With You Tonight hit bookshelves everywhere.
