As the current situation is keeping us away from people's bookshelves (and people in general) we're launching a You're Booked mini spin off called Shelf Isolation where we talk to (remotely) some of our beloved former guests, friends of the YB family and people we adore about how books and reading are helping them get through the lockdown. And we couldn't be happier with our first guest! It's the amazing stand-up, author, actor and all around inspiration Sara Pascoe. Sara is one of the most heralded comedians working today and the immensely talented author of the books Animal and Sex Power Money. We talked to her about reading habits during quarantine, big lies involving hamsters, unspeakable acts committed against libraries and the saddest book she has ever read.BOOKSDaisy Buchanan - The SisterhoodDaisy Buchanan - InsatiableSara Pascoe - AnimalSara Pascoe - Sex Money PowerBernadine Evaristo - Girl Woman OtherAnbara Salam - BelladonnaHilary Mantel - The Mirror and the LightLynne Reid Banks - I HoudiniKathy Reichs - The Bone CollectionRobert Sapolsky - BehaveHarriet Beecher Stowe - Uncle Tom’s CabinJeanine Cummins - American DirtDH Lawrence - Lady Chatterley’s LoverKate Elizabeth Russell - My Dark VanessaLisa Taddeo - Three WomenAlissa Nutting - TamperSally Rooney - Normal PeopleGraham Greene - End of the AffairAndrew Sean Greer - LessJane Austen - Pride and PrejudiceDodie Smith - I Capture The CastleLouisa May Alcott - Little WomenHaruki Murakami - Norwegian WoodJackie Collins - The StudJD Salinger - Catcher in the RyeHanya Yanagihara - A Little LifeNoel Streatfeild - Ballet ShoesGeorge Orwell - Keep The Aspidistra FlyingTruman Capote - Breakfast at TiffanysSarra Manning - UnstickyMarian Keyes - Grown Ups See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
