Description

This week we're riffling through the shelves of author, broadcaster, journalist and podcast superstar Pandora Sykes! Pandora is the co-host of the smash hit The High Low and her own chart-topping new podcast Doing It Right. Her first essay collection is the hotly anticipated How Do We Know We're Doing It Right. We talked to her about formative reading, High Low favourites and Jilly Cooper's nether regions.BOOKSDaisy Buchanan - InsatiablePandora Sykes - How Do We Know We’re Doing It Right?William Davies - Nervous StatesPaul Bloom - Against EmpathyWilliam Davies - Happiness IndustryGary Shteyngart - Super Sad True Love StoryRobert Swindells - Brother in the LandClare Chambers - Small PleasuresCandice Brathwaite - I am Not Your Baby MotherCandice Carty-Williams - QueenieZadie Smith - White TeethClaire Lombardo - Most Fun We Ever HadBritt Bennett - Vanishing HalfTayari Jones - Silver SparrowBritt Bennett - The MothersNell Zink - MislaidTayari Jones - An American MarriageMeg Wolitzer- The InterestingsKiley Reid - Such a Fun AgeNesrine Malik - We Need New StoriesJess Walter - Beautiful RuinsZadie Smith - NWMary Gaitskill - Lost CatMary Gaitskill - Bad BehaviourMary Gaitskill - VeronicaMary Gaitskill - Two Girls Fat & ThinDeborah Levy - Cost of LivingTaylor Jenkins Reid - Daisy Jones & the SixCurtis Sittenfeld - PrepJessica Knoll - Luckiest Girl AliveEmma Morgan - Love Story For Bewildered GirlsMelissa Bank - Girls Guide To Hunting & FishingMelissa Bank - Wonder SpotJohn Boyne - Ladder To The SkyJohn Boyne - Heart’s Invisible FuriesPatricia Highsmith - Talented Mr RipleyJilly Cooper - PoloJilly Cooper - RidersJane Austen - Pride and PrejudiceEmily Bronte - Wuthering HeightsJacqueline Susann - Valley of the DollsBetty Friedan - Feminine MystiqueAbi Dare - Girl With the Louding VoiceKelleigh Greenberg-Jephcott - Swan SongTruman Capote - In Cold BloodNikesh Shukla - Brown BabyNikesh Shukla - Good ImmigrantNikesh Shukla - Good Immigrant USANikesh Shukla - One Who Wrote DestinyRhik Samadder - I Never Said I loved You 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.
