What does it mean to truly forgive—and how can we stay open in a
world full of opposing beliefs? In this episode of Hey Booklovers,
we sit down with Debra Curtis to talk about her debut novel "The
Laws of Love and Logic" – and the deeply human questions at its
core. We explore the central themes of her novel: sisterhood,
religion, feminism, grief, and the tension between personal values
and societal expectations. But our conversation goes far beyond the
book. Together, we dive into bigger questions: – How do we navigate
fundamentally different worldviews? – What does radical forgiveness
really look like in real life? – And how can we remain open, even
when it’s uncomfortable? Another highlight of this episode is
Debra’s unconventional journey to becoming a writer later in life.
She shares insights into her creative process – from decades of
handwritten notebooks to recurring themes that shape her
storytelling. Her approach to writing is intuitive, reflective, and
deeply rooted in lived experience.
