In 2018, the movie adaptation of
Dumplin (starring Danielle Macdonald and Jennifer Aniston oh, and with original music by
the Dolly Parton) sashayed successfully onto Netflix. But before that, the book earned a spot as a New York Times bestseller when it was released in 2015. Since then, author Julie Murphy hasn t stopped. Now, she isn t just blazing a trail in the young adult world, but also middle grade and adult romance. This year, Julie is set to release three (yes, you read that right) novels, including
Pumpkin, the final companion novel in the
Dumplin -verse. We had the honor of talking to Julie about the importance of all of these stories, fat superheroes, and writing characters that really resonate with readers.
