Anna and Annie catch up on book news: the Wellcome Book Prize shortlist (our pick: The Trauma Cleaner); the Stella Prize shortlist, and the Man Booker International longlist.  So many awards!

Our book of the week is Ghost Wall by Sarah Moss.  A short novel about Sylvie, living with her parents in a hut in Northumberland.  Taut, dark and deals with issues from Brexit to domestic violence, we were gripped from the first page.  Long-listed for the 2019 Women's Prize for Fiction.  

Next week, Anna and Annie will be reading Axiomatic by Maria Tumarkin.  Then Anna and Amanda will be back with How We Disappeared by Jing Jing Lee.
