  • How does this Literature festival work?!

    A jumble of literature awaits... we fancy ourselves to be critics of the low brow variety in this weeks slice of fun. We veer expertly from the important reads OF OUR LIVES to the page turning, relatable bed time books. And if you need a new Netflix series...don't come here unless you enjoy predictable formats and highly competitive gardening.
