Tea or Books? #107: Do We Care What Characters Read? and Two Stella Gibbons Novels
Books in books and Stella Gibbons – welcome to episode 107!
https://www.stuckinabook.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/tea-or-books-107.mp3
In the first half, we continue our ‘do we care…’ series with ‘do we care what characters read?’ By which we mean we’re looking at the books that characters read, and what that tells us about them. In the second half, we compare two novels by Stella Gibbons – The Bachelor and Enbury Heath.
