Bookish

Brought to you by Penguin. A love letter to all those who come alive when they pull a new treasure off the shelf, stay up late reading just one more page and pack their suitcases with clothes wedged between books instead of the other way around. From well-worn literary classics to steamy bonkbusters, gripping thrillers, young adult novels and other not-so-guilty pleasures Bookish brims with literary insights, wry observations and stellar recommendations. This is an ode to the bookish places – from local libraries to bookshops big and small – and the stories that make us who we are. ‘A bookworm’s delight’ Sara Collins ‘Funny, warm and charming’ Marian Keyes ‘Like butter on toast: perfect’ Caitlin Moran © Lucy Mangan 2025 (P) Penguin Audio 2025
