Listeners, I'm sitting in my garden, it feels lovely and sunny, I feel like I'm on holiday

for Monest, which is very apt because I've got some more holiday reading for you.

This episode of Homo sapient is sponsored by Better Left Unsaid from Tufael Ahmed, author

of the acclaimed novel This Way Out. Better Left Unsaid is about three siblings navigating

life after their mother's death. They're all living separate lives trying to live

up to their last promises they each made to their mother.

Until a viral news piece throws an unwanted spotlight on the family and forces the siblings

back into each other's lives. Three siblings, three promises, three lifetimes of saying

all the wrong things. Gosh, it feels familiar. I'll leave it at that for now, it's a really

good read. The novel is available at Amazon.co.uk forward slash Homo sapiens. I love it when

they do a little URL for us. Those with a Kindle Unlimited subscription can read at no additional

extra cost. That's www.amazon.co.uk forward slash Homo sapiens. Better Left Unsaid is available

20th September in e-book, paperbook and audiobook editions. Hmm, get involved.

Hello everybody, welcome to episode 4783 of Homo sapiens.

I don't actually know what episode number this is. Number brilliant, number great fun, number

Valentine's Day related theme. Would you call it that? I think we might call it that because

this week we did our live show with the guilty feminist with Deborah Francis White of the

guilty feminist and we called it the guilty Homo sapiens and it was on Monday the 14th of February,

Valentine's Day and it was really funny and brilliant and something highly embarrassing happened

to me involving my husband at Valentine's Day. All I'm going to say is egg was on my face.

That episode will be coming out to do with comic relief. I'll find you the date,

I can't remember what it is now but it's all to do with comic relief which is really exciting
