Happiest of New Years Friends! A tad later than usual but it is still January! Once again I am sharing my top five books of the year just passed and this is quite a mixed list, as my reading was a bit niche this year. Thank you so much for sticking with me for the last year, hopefully this next year will be ever so slightly more consistent on my part, but your support means the world.

Embark on a literary voyage with the Books to Last Podcast, inspired by the BBC's beloved Desert Island Discs. Join us as we invite passionate book enthusiasts to reveal their top five must-have books for a mysterious remote adventure. Explore captivating tangents and heartwarming anecdotes along the way. Tune in for book recommendations and inspiring tales from avid readers!
