Books Boys
Want some book reviews or book recommendations? Or do you not know what books even are? We've got you covered! On the last day of every month, a classic literature fan and artist (TheDean!), and a writer and world literature buff (PJ) get together to teach the new generation about books! They talk about what they've been reading that month, make some recommendations, and speak to authors who call into the show about their work! Hosted on Acast.
