episode Episode 17 : The Last Witch cover

Episode 17 : The Last Witch

Once again, we are back on The Crescent and we are discussing ‘The Last Witch’ by C.J Cooke - a harrowing story about witch hunting and the torture of women but also about resilience and allies. A fantastically written and very powerful novel which takes a true part of history and retells these remarkable events. ‘Where there are women, there are witches.' As per usual we discuss the book in its entirety so it is full of spoilers! Just a little reminder that if you do fancy reading (we always recommend that you do) then please come back to us once you've finished! Most importantly - Keep reading!

Episode 16 : Convenience Store Woman

On this weeks episode we are talking about ‘Convenience Store Woman’ by Sayaka Murata a book club read from March. Angela joins us as a guest on this episode to discuss if the book was really satire and about the expectations on gender, marriage and class in Japanese culture. If you want to check out Angela’s amazing mosaics you can find her at www.tesseraemosaics.co.uk or on instagram @tesseraemosaics As per usual we discuss the book in its entirety so it is full of spoilers!

episode Episode 15 : The Artist cover

Episode 15 : The Artist

We have once again returned to The Crescent and this week we talk about ‘The Artist’ by Lucy Steeds. An intense and remarkable story about art, egocentrism, forgery and sexism inside and outside the world of art; all set in southern France just after the 1st world war. It was such a beautiful story. As per usual we discuss the book in its entirety so it is full of spoilers!

episode Episode 14 : The Barbecue at No.9 cover

Episode 14 : The Barbecue at No.9

On this weeks episode we talk about the phenomenal book: The Barbecue at No. 9 by Jennie Godfrey. A book that blindsided me with it’s heart (I shouldn’t have been blindsided as I read her first book and that was equally beautiful) and dealt with such difficult situations and topics on such a simple stage. Get ready to blasted back to 1985 and the excitement of Live Aid - it’s nostalgia at its best. As per usual we discuss the book in its entirety so it is full of spoilers!

Episode 13 : Dungeon Crawler Carl

On this weeks episode Matthew does more talking than ever before as we review a book he has also read - Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman. We really try to explain this incredible book in a coherent way - so we don’t sound like drunk toddlers - let us know if we succeed! Chloe feels the need to get more people reading this book so give the podcast a listen and see what you think. As per usual we discuss the book in its entirety so it is full of spoilers!

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
