Awrite, Bookworms? This month we read Shuggie Bain, the debut novel by Scottish-American writer Douglas Stuart. It tells the story of the youngest of the three children, Shuggie, growing up with his alcoholic mother, Agnes, in the 1980s, in Thatcher-era post-industrial working-class Glasgow. We won't lie, this wiz’nae an easy read, it's pretty heartbreaking, but we're really glad we read it. And also, as you may be able to tell, we really enjoyed all of the Glasgow slang, even when we havnae a scooby (have no idea) what it means.

It's our first book for 2021, and we're kicking off with a graceful and poetic bang, by reading All Our Shimmering Skies, the second novel by Australian author Trent Dalton. Set in Darwin during World War II, the book follows Molly Hook, a gravedigger girl who is desperate to break a family curse that is slowly turning her heart to stone. This is a book full of adventure, optimism, and just a little bit of magic, and it properly captured us, Bookworms.  And hey! You could be one of the lucky first to invest in Laura's incredibly original movie idea! Very exciting stuff. Happy listening! --- Tell us what you think about the book! Or the podcast!

Happy Holidays, Bookworms! We're celebrating with our annual Christmas book, and this year Ben suggested we read The Hogfather, a Christmas adjacent Discworld novel by absolute legend Terry Pratchett. So light a candle, grab some pudding, and pop on your thematically appropriate headwear. Find out whether it's as good as Ben remembers, why Fiona isn't welcome at the library, and whether Laura is wrong about the Discworld being "sort of like a spaceship" (she is wrong).

After thoroughly enjoying our book last month, we decided to do a proper movie marathon, with TWO adaptations of Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier. The 1940 Alfred Hitchcock movie (Best Picture winner, fancy), and the brand new Netflix film starring Lily James, Kristin Scott Thomas, and absolute unit Armie Hammer. We recommend, if not highly at least middlingly, BOTH of these movies. So come and hear what we loved, what we liked, and what we weren't so sure about (do you even sketch, mate). Happy Watching!

Last night we dreamt we went to Manderley again Bookworms, we thought it was high time we dove into a classic, and what could be more classic than Daphne Du Maurier's 1938 gothic thriller, Rebecca? A best seller that has spawned multiple movies and never, not once ever, been out of print. Classic like tea in the library at Manderley. Find out which characters we loved (hi, Frank), which characters we loved to hate (hello, Mr Favell) and who we would definitely save from a fire (good boy, Jasper).

This month we popped on our jerkins and sheepskin gloves, and relaxed on the second-best bed, to read Hamnet, the 2020 novel (and winner of the Women's Prize for Fiction) by Maggie O'Farrell. Set in Stratford, England in the late 16th century, Hamnet imagines the emotional, domestic, and artistic repercussions after the world's most famous (though never named) playwright and his wife lose their only son, 11-year-old Hamnet, to the bubonic plague. Prepare the tissues, because this one will make you feel some things. But only in the best ways. We genuinely loved this one, Bookworms. Get reading.  --- Tell us what you think about the book!

This month we turned on all of the lights and made sure we locked the doors before reading I'm Thinking of Ending Things, the 2016 debut novel of Canadian writer Iain Reid.

A podcast about books. It's like a bookclub, but you don't have to leave your house and you don't have to bring a plate of cheese.Hosted by Fiona, Laura and Cool Ben.

Bookworms, it's time to pop on your camouflage onesie, feed your best friend, and settle down in front of some Christian call-in radio, because this month we read the much talked about (and somewhat confusing) Death in Her Hands, the latest novel by American author Ottessa Moshfegh. While on her daily walk with her dog in a secluded woods, a woman comes across a note, handwritten and carefully pinned to the ground by stones. “Her name was Magda. Nobody will ever know who killed her. It wasn’t me. Here is her dead body.” And from there, things get weird.  Come and hear us chat about unreliable narrators, what we would Ask Jeeves, and whether dogs like lentils (they do not).

*** SPOILERS AHEAD*** Please only listen if you have watched the series, or if you really don't mind knowing everything that happens, including where the Penthouse magazine is hidden.  Even though only one of us has read the book (hi, Fiona), all four of us jumped on the Hello Sunshine train to watch the screen adaptation of Little Fires Everywhere, starring Kerry Washington and Reese Witherspoon. This super binge-worthy series deals with lots of heavy subject matter, including racial discrimination, class and privilege, and also features our collective boyfriend Joshua Jackson in slightly-too-big white underpants. Just saying. So give it a watch, then give us a listen, find out how the show is (really quite) different to the book, and let us know what you think.  Happy watching!

This month we're shining our name tags and practicing our friendliest greetings so we can do justice to Convenience Store Woman, a short and snappy novel by Japanese author Sayaka Murata.

This month we dusted off our deerstalkers and de-smudged our magnifying glasses, because it was time to figure out WHODUNNIT in Stuart Turton's  super fun debut novel, The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle (or the The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle if you have the US version). Described by the (quite clever actually) marketing department as “Gosford Park meets Inception, by way of Agatha Christie”, this super entertaining book kept us guessing, kept us interested, and kept us asking "wait, who is that person again?" Find out which character Laura has a crush on, how many times we can use the word "romp" in 35 minutes, and if we ever learned how to pronounce "Hercule Poirot".

Set in Australia during a pandemic (yes, we agree, this was an interesting choice), this novel follows grandmother Jean as the country is swept by "Zoo Flu", a virus that leaves people able to understand the surprisingly complex and beautiful language of animals. But fair warning, we're very, very far from Dr Doolittle territory here.
