Happy Saturday, book club fam!

This month, we read the incredible memoir from writer Amy Bloom, called In Love. In January 2020, Amy traveled to Switzerland with her husband Brian where he was helped by Dignitas to end his life after a diagnosis of Alzheimer's. The book details their love story, Brian’s slow decline, and Amy’s doggedness in ensuring her husband died with dignity. It’s a book about love, agency, and grief and encourages the reader to think a lot about what it means to live, and what it means to die. It was a heavy one, but a beautiful one.

Omg there's even more to discuss Aug 03, 2022

Show notes

Omg hi!!!!!! We’re back!

On today’s show, we went everywhere: From the rumours around Em Rata’s cheating husband and the Wagatha Christie trial coming to an end, to one man’s quest for Sammy Robinson’s heart and the biggest offenders when it comes to celebrities and their private jets. Plus! Is Shakira going to jail, why is a Deux Moi blind item about a high-profile royal making headlines, and finally, the Harry Styles, Olivia Wilde, Florence Pugh gossip we cannot get enough of.

This week, Mich recommended watching the movie adaption of Where the Crawdads Sing, The Body Keeps The Score by Bessel Van Der Kolk, The Rehearsal on Binge, and The Split (thank you Zara! And Emily!). Zara recommended Nightcrawling by Leila Mottley, You Made a Fool of Death with Your Beauty by Akwaeke Emezi, and Seeing Other People by Diana Reid.

Show notes

Oh haaaaiiiii, book clubbers!

This month, we read ‘The Island of Missing Trees’ by award-winning Turkish-British author Elif Shafak. The book follows the love story between two teenagers, Kostas (a Greek Cypriot) and Defne (a Turkish Cypriot), whose forbidden romance means they can only meet at a taverna on the island between their homes. Witnessing their relationship through its ebbs and flows over the many years this story encompasses, is the fig tree that lives inside the taverna - the place of safety for Kostas and Defne. Shortlisted for the Women’s Prize for Fiction, ‘The Island of Missing Trees’ is an intergenerational story about past pain, tradition, and enduring love.
