Anna, Annie and Amanda discuss the Testaments 'Winner' sticker gaffe. Dark Emu by Bruce Pascoe has been chosen as the inaugural Parliamentary Book Club book.  And on the book club theme, Room to Read has started a new book club. We love their work!

Our book of the week is The Testaments by Margaret Atwood.  The hugely hyped sequel to The Handmaid's Tale, it answers many questions about what happens to Gilead, through the points of view of Aunt Lydia, Agnes and Daisy. It may help if you've watched the TV series (but we haven't).  'Dazzling' (The Guardian) and shortlisted for the 2019 Booker Prize.  But what did we think?

Next up, Anna and Amanda are reading Ducks, Newburyport by Lucy Ellmann and An Orchestra of Minorities by Chigozie Obioma.
