This was made all the better as the author recorded and read this herself making it so much more personal and full of warmth. This year, as the UK hosted the Eurovision Song Contest 2023 on behalf of Ukraine, each episode also featured a novel set in a Eurovision country.So in the middle of the night he decides he's going to climb onto this narrow balcony and walk out across this narrow ledge - go out through one window and come in through the other one. Her reading obsession continued throughout her teenage years when she studied both English Language and English Literature at college. There is a phenomenal line-up of celebrity panellists keen to share their love of books and reading, including Bridgerton’s Adjoa Andoh, Catastrophe’s Rob Delaney, Death In Paradise’s Don Warrington and food hero Rick Stein.

Not that I've read the ending, but I think it's pretty clear to see where this one will go - a nice, romantic story about the strength of a women-led community, and how in small ways we can all change the world (even if all we do is attend a local pottery class). Hosted by the lovely Sara Cox, Between the Covers is shown on Tuesday nights on BBC2 and the episodes can also be found on BBC iPlayer. but for me it was a bit difficult to follow at times and jumped around more than I would have liked.
