We talk about hobbies (stamp collecting, anyone?), nesting, and security footage. We also discuss concussions and fancy dress (do you also picture Bridget Jones?).

Join us as we discuss The Couple Next Door by Shari Lapena. After providing a short biography of Shari Lapena (did you know she used to write literary comedies?), we dive into postpartum depression and kidnapping. We talk about AC vents (they can have more than one use) and the risk of starting a business. We consider paying ransoms and offering rewards. We also give our interpretations of the ending (including what we hope will happen next), and we mention the case of Madeleine McCann. Give your opinion on the book in a comment below!

In this week’s episode, we’re diving into Between Husbands and Wives by Susannah Glenn. We give our opinions on public proposals (just no), breakups, and egging. We discuss smear campaigns and medical malpractice (there’s a difference between a mistake and gross negligence). We also touch on our desire to visit Australia, and we try to wrap our brains around the climate in the Southern Hemisphere. Let us know what you thought of Between Husbands and Wives!
