#47 Escapist reads to ease our way out of lockdown

Send us a Text Message.Welcome to the 47th episode of The Bookcast Club, a book podcast for people who love to read and talk books. Today, Alice and Jenny revisit escapist reads, as we both step with excitement and trepidation out of lockdown. We share a mix of arm chair travel both at home and abroad, nature reads and books set in the great outdoors. A full transcript of this episode is available and should be accessible via your podcast app.Support The Bookcast ClubYou can support the podcast on Patreon.
