Book Club

Book Club is sponsored by:



and is now presented by Samantha Pearce



Hi, welcome to Book Club!

Book Club is presented every Wednesday evening and is, predictably, all about books! The structure of the show is based around listener’s favourite books, and each week a listener’s top three books will be chosen and discussed. All books from all genres are open for discussion, from a little bit of Sophie Kinsella, to cookery books, science fiction and of course the good old classics!

The show is a good mix of book club content; characterisation, plot lines, humour, language, etc. And I try to have as many guests on the show as possible, so that the listeners can hear the opinions of others...and of course it can lead to the odd juicy debate! It’s great to get authors on the show too – especially if they’ve written one of the books that is up for review.

I hope you enjoy! I’m always looking for book suggestions, listener’s favourite books, guest speakers or simply ideas for the show; so please contribute as much as possible!
