About this listen

This week, we’re talking about belonging—finding where you feel most yourself and building community around that truth. Eliana Ramage is the author of this month’s Reese’s Book Club Pick, To the Moon and Back, a novel that explores identity, ambition, sapphic romance, and the complicated bonds between mothers, daughters, and chosen family. Eliana opens up about weaving her Cherokee roots and queer experience into her storytelling, and how that process shaped her own journey of self-discovery. She unpacks the many layers of connection—and what it means to find your place in the world when you live at the intersection of identities.
