And we’re back! In the first episode of Series 6 the girls get stuck into our first “People What We Heart Loads” in Kiley Dunbar and her Borrow A Bookshop Holiday! The girls talk (and disagree mainly) on whether trauma makes a story worthwhile, the merit of light or romantic fiction in general and how Kim Namjoon of BTS fame works as a disguised leading man I mean if we want to get into it: - Why do we feel bad about reading books where trauma isn’t front and centre - And the thing is, there was plenty in this book to dig into trauma-wise, it just wasn’t the focus of the whole piece - Romantic fiction as a celebration of when we FINALLY get to win, even just for a second - And yes, Kiley cast BTS’s RM as her leading man DON’T EVEN TRY TELL US DIFFERENT!! Tangents? You got it! Briefly: - We are still bitterly jealous of that girl from primary school that always had packs of tissues with her - Cliodhna and Sarah have both considered joining a convent at least once in their young lives. Seriously, we’re not even messing - WB Yeats remains the creepiest poet in our experience - We were not prepared to enjoy the BTS/Coldplay collaboration and we do not know how to feel about it - Chloe is not over the UN plane outfits and may never get over it - Also we’re coming for that creepy IT guy what comes on to first years. Boy better watch his back It’s all here in this week’s Chick Lit 4 Life!! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lc-lewis/message
