  • Lovely podcast!

    This is what book podcasts should be! Love how enthusiastic and funny these episodes are - the banter from both hosts just gives you the warm and cosy feels - nice to listen to book recommendations that aren't smug or too high horse. Genuine love for reading and finding new great books really comes through in easy to listen, casual conversations. Can't wait for new episodes to come out

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Noughties Nostalgia: Lily Allen, Malorie Blackman and Kissin’ Kate Barlow
Q: Are there any good books you'd like to recommend for Stella?
They suggest Catherine Rundell's Impossible Creatures for younger readers and The Doom Spell for more adventurous reads, while sharing travel memories and audiobooks as a way to keep kids engaged on long journeys.
Noughties Nostalgia: Lily Allen, Malorie Blackman and Kissin’ Kate Barlow
Q: And what should I read next?
The hosts acknowledge Rex's strong taste in dystopian books and recommend a mix of age-appropriate titles like Charlie Higson's Enemy series and Jasper Fforde's The Last Dragonslayer, framing selections as stepping stones suitable for a reader moving from mid to upper middle grade.
Everybody Scream: Haunted Books, Ghost Stories and Book Binges
Q: Have you gone in a fictional or non-fiction direction?
I've gone in a fictional route, because what I would imagine as a therapist is you understand people and psychology so well that reading something where character motivations are quite simplistic and not explained probably won't do it for you.
Weird Little Books: Zombies, Word Soup and Falling In Love With A Printer
Q: Do you have any recommendations for audiobooks that are particularly good having had them read to you rather than reading them yourself?
Jake suggests 'Friends, Lovers and The Big Terrible Thing' by Matthew Perry, which he narrates, highlighting its vulnerability and honesty about addiction.
Books We Thought We’d Hate: ACOTAR, Historical Fiction and Prize-Winners
Q: Do you respond to announcements of film or TV adaptations of your favourite books with excitement or can you find that your own interpretation of the book or books can actually hamper your enjoyment?
It depends how much I love the book. If it's up there as one of my faves, then I'm really excited for more from that world. The stakes are much higher.
