Dee and Katie are brilliant! This is the first ever podcast I have listened to and watched (youtube) and love how they both bring you in to the Spicy Librarian world. Visiting later in June (3 hours away) and I cannot wait to visit! This podcast is great to watch (with a notepad for great book recommendations) and cuppa to hunker down and listen/watch. Along with the odd spoiler slip from Dee and lots of laughter all around. Thank you xx
