Download Zoe chats about Tana French, Bonnie Garmus and strong female characters

Sarah and Louise from a reading group in Westward Ho! join Zoe to chat about their book club and what books they have been reading and enjoying recently.

They recommend 'Lessons In Chemistry' by Bonnie Garmus and 'The Witch Elm' by Tara French - both which they have read as a group recently.

Zoe also discusses the importance of strong female characters in fiction and why Radio 2's very own Jeremy Vine was spotted on a Penny Farthing!?
