Description

For our series finale, we are thrilled to present this conversation with author, podcaster and all-round inspiration Otegha Uwagba! Otegha is the author of the bestselling career guide Little Black Book and the essay collection Whites: On Race and Other Falsehoods which was picked as one of the Guardian’s Books of The Year. Her latest book is the memoir We Need To Talk About Money. We talked to her about Enid Blyton deep cuts, books about families, jumping aboard the Ferrante bandwagon and why some books are like catnip.BOOKSDaisy Buchanan - InsatiableOtegha Uwagba - Little Black BookOtegha Uwagba - Whites: On Race and Other FalsehoodsOtegha Uwagba - We Need To Talk About MoneyJodi Kantor and Megan Twohey - She SaidEnid Blyton - Famous FiveEnid Blyton - Secret SevenEnid Blyton - Five Find-OutersCS Lewis - Chronicles of NarniaJK Rowling - Harry PotterMary Wesley - Sensible LifeElena Ferrante - Lying Life of AdultsElena Ferrante - Neapolitan QuartetGerald Durrell - My Family and Other AnimalsElaine Castillo - America is Not the HeartJulian Fellowes - SnobsKatherine Heiny - Single Carefree MellowDolly Alderton - Everything I Know About LoveMeg Mason - Sorrow and BlissMeg Wolitzer - The InterestingsMeg Wolitzer - The Female PersuasionDeborah Levy - Real EstateDeborah Levy - Cost of LivingLisa Taddeo - Three WomenAlain de Botton - Course of LoveAda Calhoun - Wedding Toasts I’ll Never GiveChimamanda Ngozi Adichie - AmericanahTorrey Peters - Detransition Baby 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.
