Perfect for these chilly winter days, the Hope Book Club fires up some crackling good fireside fiction for Episode 23.

Katrina Roe and Natasha Moore from the Centre for Public Christianity discuss:

Fleishman is in Trouble –  the debut novel  of Taffy Brodesser-Akner.  It’s the story of a 41 year man, Toby Fleishman, going through a bitter divorce from his wife of 15 years.

Bel Canto by Anne Patchett – Loosely based on true events, a group of high profile diplomats and an opera singer are taken hostage by terrorists in South America.  It’s a lockdown experience like no other.

And The Giver of Stars, by Jojo Moyes  – about the packhorse librarians in the mountains of Kentucky.

Plus, we bring our top five heart-warming reads for the Pandemic.

That’s all in episode 23 of the Hope Book Club podcast. Because life’s just better with a book!
