October is bringing you back-to-back thrillers, because this month we're reading the modern noir classic, Miss Smilla's Feeling for Snow. Laura is here to give you the blurb, and tell you why you should read it in time for our next main episode, out at the end of the month. Happy reading!

This month we're discussing Christian White's 2018 debut novel, The Nowhere Child, which is a mystery, a thriller, and pure nightmare fuel for anyone with a snake phobia (hi, Fiona).

Join us as we talk about bad accents, amazing reveals, and the seminal Britney Spears film Crossroads (we promise it's relevant).

It's September! And this month we're reading The Nowhere Child, a 2018 debut novel by Australian author Christian White (home town represent!). What would you do if a stranger came along one day and told you that you had been kidnapped as a small child, and that your parents weren't really your parents? The Nowhere Child is a suspenseful page turner that will keep you guessing until the bitter end. So read it in time for our next main episode, out at the end of September. Happy Reading! Make sure you leave the lights on!

This month we're feeling our impending mortality, because we read The Immortalists, a 2018 novel by Chloe Benjamin.

Join us as we discuss fate, family, the perils of knowing the future, and whether or not we believe in magic (it's us, of COURSE we do).

We've finally stopped crying and/or yelling long enough to bring you a mini* episode on The Handmaid's Tale Season 2.

Join Fiona, Laura, and our first ever returning special guest Damien, to talk about this sometimes brilliant, often harrowing, and always controversial series.

Whether you loved it, hated it, or just want to talk about Oprah, we've got you covered.

*maxi, if we're being real

In this very special mini episode we welcome Melbourne author Lili Wilkinson to the podcast.

Lili has written 12 books (so far), including the brand new release After The Lights Go Out, a novel about a doomsday prepping family in rural Australia.

In this (mostly) spoiler-free chat, we find out where doomsday preppers hang out, how to write about sex for teenagers, and how prepared Laura is for the end of the world (more prepared than we thought tbh).

We LOVED this book, you guys. Find Lili on Twitter: @twitofalili

Welcome to August, Bookworms. This month we're tackling The Immortalists, a 2018 novel by Chloe Benjamin. This book follows four siblings who, one hot Summer in 1969, visit a psychic who can (apparently) predict the exact day that they'll die. The book follows these siblings in the years after their visit, and poses the question, "If you knew the date of your death, how would you live your life?". Come and feel things with us, bookworms. Read The Immortalists in time for our next main episode, out at the end of August.

This month we're fanning the dystopian flames and reading Ray Bradbury's 1953 novel, Fahrenheit 451.

Join us as we talk about what makes something a classic, if it's ever right to burn a book, and whether it's ok to got to bed without showering if you smell like kerosine (it's not, come on guys, be serious).

Jane Austen fans unite! Producer Josie was shocked and appalled to learn that none of the Book Who's Talking gang had ever read an Austen, so she asked (begged) Fiona and Ben to have a crack at the ever popular Pride and Prejudice.

Find out if this book is as good as Josie says it is (it's really good), if Colin Firth is still swoon-worthy (he is), and if Fiona ever figured out why it's called Pride and Prejudice (wait and see).

Fiona is here to tell you what we're reading in July - Fahrenheit 451 by American writer Ray Bradbury (a science fiction author so influential they named an actual asteroid after him). First published in 1953, this dystopian novel is an undisputed classic than none of the BWT gang has ever read, so we're eager to find out what all of the fuss is about. Also there's a new-ish HBO movie adaptation starring Michael B. Jordan, so, you know, we need an excuse to watch that. Read it in time for our next main episode, out at the end of July. Happy reading!
