Listen "Tegan Bennett Daylight in conversation"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, a conversation with author Tegan Bennet Daylight, centred around her new YA novel, Royals.
A group of teenagers alone in an empty shopping centre, with everything they could possibly want ... and a baby? With no phones, no internet and no way out, Shannon and five other trapped teens are completely disconnected from the outside world ... and their online lives. It’s hard to say whether they’ll be driven to delinquency, or – even worse – forced to make friends irl.
This conversation took place as part of the Readings Teen Advisory Board program.
