We're two friends keeping in touch through the power of books. This week, we're discussing our 31st book club pick, Sarah Hall's 'Helm'. Join us as we share our thoughts on the book. Grab your copy from your local library and read along with us!

But that's not all. Every episode is packed with bookish goodness. We chat about what we've been reading and rate all our reads using our signature system: Return, Fine, Renew, or Overdue (fingers crossed for no Returns!).

This week’s reading highlights include:

📖How to Build a Girl by Caitlin Moran (7.05)

📖 The Boy from the Sea by Garrett Carr (7.39)

📖 Among the Burning Flowers by Samantha Shannon (11.56)

📖 Everything is Tuberculosis by John Green (15.33)

Follow us on Instagram @LoungingWithBooks for more bookish content and to share your thoughts on Helm. We will be reading up to 'Chapter 48' (page 264)

Let’s make every week a great week for books. Happy reading! 📚✨
