Girls in Trucks author, Katie Crouch
April 24th, 2008 by Krista Derbecker Gilliam in Books & Readings 
Sarah Walters is on a quest for love and fulfillment. So the Charleston debutante moves to New York City and struggles through a series of bad relationships in Katie Crouch’s debut novel, Girls in Trucks.
Crouch’s own story isn’t that far removed from her protagonist’s. Crouch is also a Charleston native who’s lived in New York, and admits to making a lot of dating mistakes.
“The book is autobiographical emotionally,” Crouch says over the phone from her San Francisco home. “I sort of took my life and then heightened it, because if I wrote a book about my life it would be pretty dull.”

Hi, I’d like to request that you consider doing a podcast with Susan Gregg Gilmore, author of Looking for Salvation at the Dairy Queen — a novel set in Atlanta and Ringgold, GA. Could you please email me and let me know if it’s possible to set this up? It’s a hot pick for a lot of summer reading lists right now.
Thanks!
