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.

This month we popped on our jerkins & sheepskin gloves, and relaxed on the second-best bed, to read Hamnet, the 2020 novel by Maggie O'Farrell.

After reading Iain Reid's debut novel I'm Thinking Of Ending Things, we jumped on Netflix to watch the new movie adaptation, written and directed by Charlie Kaufman.

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.
info_outlineBookworms, it's time to secure your tracking bracelet - sorry I mean your "Well Band" - because we're about to dive into The Farm, the debut novel by Filipino American author Jane Ramos.
Set inside Golden Oaks, a baby farm in Massachusetts where women (especially immigrants) serve as surrogates for super-wealthy clients, The Farm reads not so much as dystopia, but as a plausible next step on our capitalist journey.
With a super interesting premise, and a whole lot of buzz, we were very excited to read this one. Come and find out what we thought was good, what we thought was missing, and what we thought of Ben's emoji choice.
Happy Listening!
