Episode 116: “Smoke Signals and Lost Souls: Finding Family in the Fire”

In this episode, Mika (@theplanistobebooked) joins me in the Lit Lounge to discuss Keeper of Lost Children by Sadeqa Johnson, a moving novel about family, resilience, sacrifice, and the enduring power of hope. Together, we explore the journeys of the book's three heroes, the historical events that shape their lives, and the unforgettable moments that left us reflecting long after we turned the final page.

We dive into the novel's biggest themes, share our favorite moments and characters, and discuss the emotional impact of a story that reminds us what people are willing to risk for those they love. If you enjoy rich historical fiction and meaningful conversations that go beyond the pages, this is an episode you won't want to miss.
