Podcast Description
Intro Ep1: What or shall I say who is Lex.Btw.TheLines... I'm just a #Pantropesual being just giving my little two cents on books I've read. Dark Romance, Billionaire, Mafia, Stalker Romance, Fantasy, Thriller, pretty much anything with smut or morally grey men. Don't get it twisted, though I love a good RomCom, and I'm entering into my paranormal era along with so many others. We all know how hard it is to find a local book club that reads what you're into without giving you the side eye. So I've created a space where I can discuss the type of books I absolutely love with like-minded people. Hey, "Book Besties."If you're into discussing or reviewing books, this is a safe space for you, no judgment. We will discuss likes and dislikes without bashing an author or their work. We will agree to disagree peacefully, or you can kindly, gtf .~Lex.Btw.TheLines

We sit down with horror and thriller author Kenya Ross Dyme to talk about why “Read Books By Black Women” is a mission, not a slogan, and what underrepresentation really looks like in publishing. Then we unpack her dystopian horror novel Seed, where satire, social media, and real history collide in ways that feel uncomfortably plausible.
• building visibility for Black women authors through intentional reading and wearable messaging
• how merch and a dedicated website support the wider movement beyond one genre
• the horror roots of Seed including designer baby obsession, fetish culture, and colorism
• why political satire belongs inside horror when real life is already outrageous
• writing comedic beats into dark scenes without letting anyone off the hook
• the hardest themes to draft including medical racism, consent, and disposable bodies
• the Seed special edition details including bonus chapters, discussion questions, and extras
• navigating Amazon listing issues and how to spot the correct cover
• what’s next with Boil Advisory and environmental horror inspired by poisoned water crises
• upcoming appearances and a spotlight on Black thriller and horror events
