Summary

Link to this episode in the new The Shameless Book Club feed: https://open.spotify.com/episode/2juRlYMNRpX63TRklxDqjy?si=704ce959da76476b Hellooooo, book clubbers!!!! This month, we read the non-fiction book from bestselling Aussie author Trent Dalton called Love Stories. For about two months, Trent sat on a busy Brisbane street corner, asking more than 150 strangers for their best love stories. What sparked this idea? After the passing of his best mate’s mother and, well, a global pandemic, Trent felt like we all needed to hear some love stories. Today on the show, we chat about our favourite stories and main takeaways from the book, and then! Annabelle interviews Trent Dalton himself at the very end of this episode. Send Trent your love stories via the email address [email protected]. Got some thoughts on our February pick, ‘If I Had Your Face’ by Frances Cha? We’re allllll ears (also, eyes, heads, bodies, etc etc) - join in the convo over on our Insta, @theshamelessbookclub. Or, if you’re after some variety, here’s a link to record a voice message via our website, too. Big thanks to The Base Collective and their Beauty Sleep range for making this episode possible.
