In episode 34 of the Hope Book Club we explore tender tales of love and loss.

Sea Wife, by Amity Gage - A family buy a boat and sail around the Caribbean, with mystery, tragedy and intrigue thrown into the mix.

H is for Hawke by Helen Macdonald - The memoir of a woman who is grieving her father and a memoir of the tenuous, but growing trust between human and hawk as one attempts to train the other. 

A song for the Road - a debut novel by American author Kathleen Basi.  A grieving wife and mum takes a flip-a-coin road trip devised by her late teenage children. It’s a musical sojourn about coming to terms with the past, and forgiving yourself and others.

And we discuss our go-to comfort reads – the Tim Tams of the Book World.
