Summary

Part 1 of this week’s book club special is all about how to start a book club without actually seeing anyone. And it’s so easy! And fun! Stevie and Tessa look at how often to meet, where to organise everything, what to talk about and why being a Book Dictator is never a good thing. Also find out why Tessa’s mum got kicked out of the village book club after just one session.

Recorded and edited by Naomi Parnell for Plosive Productions.
