Prizes and Bookish Meet-ups • Subscribers' Issue #27 of The Book Club Review Weekend

Subscribers Q and Charlotte were in London this weekend, and I was delighted to have the opportunity to meet up. Q is reporting back on her bookshop adventures after a week in the UK while Charlotte is bringing us a perfect summer reading recommendation and keeping us up-to-date with those Karl Ove Knaussgard books. At six substantial volumes they're a time commitment but are they worth it? Charlotte reveals all.

Plus I'm getting to know the books that won the Booker International Prize, and the Dublin Literary Award this past week.

All that in this week's Book Club Review Weekend.
