Dorothy Whipple, May Sinclair, and favourite books of 2022 – welcome to episode 112!
https://www.stuckinabook.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/tea-or-books-112.mp3Happy new year! Welcome to the first episode of Tea or Books? for 2023 – recorded on two different days, so hopefully it’s not too awkward. In the first half, we cover our favourite reads from 2022 (so won’t be a HUGE surprise if you read my blog) and in the second half we compare They Were Sisters by Dorothy Whipple and The Three Sisters by May Sinclair.
