Pens and Poison

Are you tired of book channels that only talk about trash fiction or literature pages that are just stand-ins for someone’s lopsided political agenda? Yeah, me too. My name’s Liza. I'm a writer, recovering English major, and cultural critic—and I created Pens and Poison to bring you real literature. If you're hungry for a weekly literary bite, look no further. On Pens and Poison, we discuss big books and hot takes as we embark on literary adventures and restore the original purpose of literature—to explore what makes us human. So don’t forget to subscribe and join me here and on Instagram (@pensandpoison) to follow my poetic journey. Welcome to Pens and Poison—the real way of doing literature.
