Description

Laura Jane Williams is an incredibly talented storyteller who has written columns for numerous magazines, published two non-fiction books and has just celebrated the release of her second fiction novel. Her debut fiction Our Stop was a smash hit in the UK summer in 2019 and The Love Square is set to be just as popular, having been described as “clever, hilarious and a total unbridled joy to read".

We've refreshed the podcast format a tiny bit to include just one recommendation for each of us in the introduction. But if you want to skip straight to our interview, it starts at 13 minutes. 

Caitlin recommends

You Were Made for Me by Jenna Guillaume

“If Frankenstein was a Young Adult rom-com”

Michelle recommends

The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Oseman

“This is like tea and scones and jam and cream British comfort, but with a slight edge which I love”

*Note: Michelle listened to the audiobook of this novel as part of the publicity tour for Penguin.
