I read 6 books this month. I thought I was being smart reading some Booker-tipped stuff... but the judges said no 😂

Apologies for the audio quality - my mic didn't fancy connecting to my phone again, which is super annoying.

I’m also kinda out of office at the moment. As this goes live, I’ll still be in Sicily! But I will read and reply to comments as soon as I’m back.
