Book 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 popped on our jerkins and sheepskin gloves, and relaxed on the second-best bed, to read Hamnet, the 2020 novel (and winner of the Women's Prize for Fiction) by Maggie O'Farrell.

Set in Stratford, England in the late 16th century, Hamnet imagines the emotional, domestic, and artistic repercussions after the world's most famous (though never named) playwright and his wife lose their only son, 11-year-old Hamnet, to the bubonic plague.

Prepare the tissues, because this one will make you feel some things. But only in the best ways. We genuinely loved this one, Bookworms. Get reading.
