Description

This week, we head to South London to chat to the award winning journalist and author Poorna Bell. Poorna wrote about her story in her acclaimed 2017 memoir, Chase The Rainbow: One Man’s Journey With Mental Health, And The Woman Who Loved Him. She’s quick, clever, extremely funny, a must-follow on Instagram and has a sideboard worthy of envy. And as an added bonus for our beloved You're Booked listeners, you can pre-order Daisy Buchanan's new book The Sisterhood from The Margate Bookshop and get 20% off when you use the code BOOKED at checkout.BOOKS (CLICK ON THE TITLES TO FIND OUT MORE)Daisy Buchanan - The SisterhoodPoorna Bell - Chase the RainbowPoorna Bell - In Search of SilenceAmrita Narayanan - The Parrots of DesireVarious - The Rig VedaHaruki Murakami - Men Without WomenHaruki Murakami - Sputnik SweetheartMichael Ende - The Neverending StoryRosie Blake - The Hygge HolidayTerry Pratchett - The Colour of MagicDean Windass - DeanoHaruki Murakami - The Wind Up Bird ChronicleAT Schofield - What a Boy Should KnowTony Jewell - Reptiles & Amphibians of New ZealandMark Leigh & Mike Lepine -Pets With Tourette'sMikhail Bulgakov - The Master and MargaritaSarah J Maas - A Court of Thorns and RosesDavid Sedaris - When You Are Engulfed in FlamesCat Marnell - How To Murder Your LifePaul Theroux - Fresh-air FiendJoan Didion - The Year of Magical Thinking See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Welcome to You’re Booked, the podcast for literary nosy parkers who would like the chance to snoop around their favourite authors’ bookshelves.I’m Daisy Buchanan, your Book Inspector, and I’ll be asking our guests all about the first forbidden books they read under the covers, the beloved books they have borrowed, and never given back, and those impressive heavyweight hardbacks that make them look like intellectual giants – even though they couldn’t get beyond the first twenty pages.We’ll also be talking about what makes readers into writers, how our guests became book lovers and their favourite reading memories, all with a dash of intelligence and a dollop of irreverence. Our guests include Dolly Alderton, Nina Stibbe, Nikesh Shukla, and many more favourites from our own bookshelves. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
