Join us for spooky fun and lots of reading recommendations!If you'd like to jump ahead to the interview, feel free to use the timestamp below - although we hope you enjoy the entire episode! You can also watch the video interview on YouTube or via our blog post.

Welcome back to the Turn The Page podcast.
This month, our episode is all about thrillers. Sophie is a big thriller reader, but thrillers haven't always been my cup of tea, or so I thought. But after chatting about different books, and seeing what falls under the 'thriller' category on Goodreads, this month, we're asking the question, 'What exactly makes a thriller a thriller?'
To help us out, I'll be chatting to two thriller/mystery authors, Kathryn Foxfield and Maya MacGregor about their latest books and asking them what goes into writing a gripping thriller/mystery.If you'd like to jump ahead to the interview, feel free to use the timestamp below - although we hope you enjoy the entire episode! You can also watch the video interview on YouTube or via our blog post.

It's time for our June 2022 episode of the Turn The Page podcast!
This month, we hit the road and visited the Northern Young Adult Literary Festival (NYALitFest) in Preston, England for a day of bookish fun!
We enjoyed a panel on witchcraft in YA that led to a discussion on female rage, women's rights, and feminism in young adult literature, followed by a panel on diversity and inclusion in YA that demonstrated why young adult novels are so important for readers of all ages.
In the panels, we heard from Ciannon Smart, Mary Watson, Finbar Hawkins, Jennifer Lane, Simon James Green, Sita Brahmachari, Cynthia So, and Kate Weston.
We also caught up with YA author, Rab Ferguson, who stopped to chat with us about his debut YA novel, Landfill Mountains, a magical YA adventure that highlights the impacts of climate change.
Sophie and I also share our thoughts on the panels, talk about the books we bought, and give you our slightly chaotic top tips for attending a book festival!
Quick note: This is our very first attempt at recording a podcast "in the field" so we apologise in advance for any sound inconsistencies as we trial new technology and equipment which might not produce our usual recording quality.As this is a longer than usual episode, if you're interested in a particular panel/interview, feel free to jump to the timestamps below - although we hope you enjoy the whole episode!

We are FINALLY back with another episode of the Turn the Page podcast. As well as being in the middle of another lockdown, we had a few hiccups that prevented us from recording for a while. But, we're happy to say that we've now updated our tech and we are back up and running! In this episode, we're talking about; our favourite book adaptations, #NaNoWriMo, #Audiblegate, our August book club selection (The Extraordinaries by TJ Klune) and as always, we review our recent reads! Happy listening and happy reading!
Please note: There are spoilers from The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien at around 30-35 minutes.

I can't believe it's already time for Episode Two of the Turn The Page podcast, our new, monthly podcast where we talk about our latest reads, book news and bookish events.
In this episode, we talk about Pride Month, the Summer #ReadWithPride challenge and discuss our very first Turn The Page book club book, Hour of the Bees.
Please note:
1. We did experience a few minor technical issues while recording this podcast so we apologies for any inconsistencies.
2. At around 11-12 minutes into the podcast, I accidentally named the wrong title of a book. The book I was talking about was not Project Hero (although that book was also great), the book I'd meant to reference was Charlie Sunshine (that's what I get for not adding it to Goodreads!)
