While we're taking a little break, we're revisiting just a few of our favourite ever You're Booked interviews. We're travelling all the way back to our first ever series for this chat with author, journalist and podcast supremo Elizabeth Day. Elizabeth is the author of five novels including Magpie and The Party plus her memoir, based on her massively successful podcast How To Fail and her most book Friendaholic: Confessions of a Friendship Addict. While snooping around her (small but perfectly formed) flat, we discussed being nosey, literary heroines, EM Forster related tattoos and learning the facts of life from The Thorn Birds. Find out more about all the books mentioned by visiting the You're Booked page at Bookshop.org.
