For this, my 50th episode, I am going to be going back to the origins of the podcast and looking at a film. Yes, it’s about cars. No, Chris Evans isn’t in it. No, I don’t have a driving licence. For all that this film is not an Oscar winner, and nor does it star...
This week I had planned to talk about a book by the ever-wonderful Terry Pratchett, unfortunately, time somehow escaped me (the Masterchef Australia grand finale was worth it) and I ended up digging through my notes and found a book I enjoyed and wanted to share with you, my listeners. So, this week I’m talking...
This week I am travelling to 2012 via the Florida Keys with a review of the sadly short-lived Bones spin-off, The Finder. I have to be honest I was really sad when this series was cancelled and feel that it deserved a lot more than just the 13 episodes (plus backdoor pilot) that we got....
Welcome to another episode in my cosy little bookshop. In this episode, I am going to talk about a debut. book by a new author, Jennifer Saint’s Ariadne. Yes, I am returning to my comfort zone and talking about Greek mythology. This book was a journey that I took in less than a day and...
It arrived on Disney Plus in the UK last week and if you had any idea how much of a fan of the show I was I you wouldn’t even need to guess. This week I am going to be talking about the 1985-1992 series starring Betty White, Rue McLanahan, Bea Arthur and Estelle Getty,...
This week I am traversing back in time to 1980 and reviewing a book that I read in my childhood – however inappropriate that may now happen to be. Yes, I am going to be talking about Stephen King’s novel Firestarter. This book is a bit of a minefield, or at least that’s what I...
This week I am taking a look at Dollface which arrived on Disney Plus earlier this year. Starring Kat Dennings, Brenda Song and Shay Mitchell it’s a study of female relationships and rebuilding ones that were abandoned. I also give you an update on my mental health and why last week was a no go...
This week I am reviewing a book that is only a few days old -in fact, it was released in the UK on 24th June 2021. I am revisiting a favourite author in the form of Paige Toon and her latest novel, Someone I used to know. This book has everything you could want for...
This week I have moved away from the YA, the magical and the mystical and taken a trip to the world of old Hollywood glamour, courtesy of Taylor Jenkins Reid and her 2017 novel, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo. I have to admit, I had no idea what to expect when I picked this...
This week I’m taking you to the Caribbean and the fictional island of St Marie, where having a secret can be murder! This British series has been a long-time favourite of mine; a procedural that offers up murder with a side of white sands and turquoise waters and I love every minute of it. So,...
