Bookworms! It's your friends from Book Who's Talking, here with some Summer reading recommendations (or Christmas present suggestions, your choice).
info_outline Mini Episode - Rebecca CinemaBook Who's Talking
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 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, the holiday season is upon us once again, so we've decided to stick with tradition, and read a Christmas Book!
*record scratch*
That's right, we're reading that well-known Christmas classic, Pet Sematary by Stephen King.
Look, it was on a list of Christmas Books, and we've never read horror for the podcast before, so we're doing it.
Released in 1983, Pet Sematary follows the Creeds, a family who have just moved from Chicago to small-town Maine. Near their new house, local children have created a cemetery for the dogs and cats killed by the steady stream of transports on the busy highway that runs past their yard.
Stephen King still considers this his most frightening book ever (gulp), so find out why, and then come and see what we thought about it at the end of December.
Happy reading!
