Book Bites with Rebecca and Rebecca – Whetting Your Appetite for Your Next Read.
If you know the lovely and talented Pepper Basham, I don’t have to convince you to listen to this episode, but if you haven’t been introduced, this episode is a must. For fans of Scotland and all things Scottish, the book is set on the Isle of Mull, filled with Scottish settings and vocabulary.
The Rebeccas chatted with Pepper about writing in two genres, writing with humor, and the importance of keeping large casts of characters contained so readers can keep them all separate and organized in their minds.
Other side conversations include the impact we can have on others even when we don’t recognize it, and how God can add nuance and detail to the story. We discussed how He uses us to influence others through our small actions or words to bring joy and light to the world. Rebecca R. enters a passionate pitch for the need for higher lexile YA books in high schools that model positive, uplifting relationships of all sorts.
And there’s a reveal regarding Pepper’s newest project: A YA contemporary romance.

In this first (75th) episode of season 5, join the Rebeccas as we discuss “Some Like It Scot” by Pepper Basham. We loved this novel! That is a given, but the reason you’ll want to join us is to find out why. Is it the rogue animals, the comedy, the meet-cute, the setting, the side characters, the theme? Or perhaps it’s the “Edwardian Experience” at the Scottish manor house on the Isle of Mull? Find out whether the narration in the audio book is worth the cost.
Are you a writer? The Rebeccas discuss how Pepper manages this “large cast novel” and some deep themes about family, home, and characters discovering how to deal with grief in a healthy way, all while exploring the idea of staying home, running from home, and finding home.
Please comment on what you enjoyed more: Animals, the meet-cute, side characters, the theme, or third act breakup.
