Hurrah! We are very excited to bring you a guest we've being trying to get on the podcast for flipping ages. It's the wonderful Yomi Adegoke! Yomi is a podcaster, broadcaster, multi-award winning journalist and the author of Slay in Your Lane (with former YB guest Elizabeth Uviebinené) and The Offline Diaries (also with Elizabeth). Yomi's debut novel is the hotly anticipated The List, described as 'the book of the Summer' by Vogue and currently in development for TV. We talked to her about the icon that is Jackie Collins, books so good they make you want to give up, the joy of Jacqueline Wilson and the genius of Peep Show.
