Wonderful Writers

Welcome to Episode 8 of Wonderful Writers, a podcast dedicated to sharing some of our favourite authors and their wonderful books! This week, Alice wishes to tell people why they should read Martha Waters, an author who debuted with her first historical romance in 2020. Waters is one of Alice's auto-buy authors, someone she admires greatly, whose debut novel got her through the UK's first lockdown. In between gushing about how amazing Waters is, she and Anne discuss the books, the characters, their covers, the possible title choices for future books (before realising after recording that Waters' 3rd book title has already been published!) and, as always, there is helpless giggling & some fan-casting for any future film adaptations!  We hope that you enjoy this episode, if you would like to talk to us about books, you can email us at [email protected] or DM us at our Instagram pages - Alice - @bookskindleandmorebooks Anne - @alwayslovereviews Episode may contain MINOR spoilers of Martha Waters' novels.

Welcome to Episode 7 of Wonderful Writers, a podcast dedicated to sharing some of our favourite authors and their wonderful books! For this episode, Anne has chosen historical and paranormal romance author, Lynsay Sands as her subject! Filled with admiration for Sands and love for her dozens of novels, Anne explains to Alice why the Highland heroes mean so much to her, tropes Sands writes really well; castles are mentioned many times, and Beauty and the Beast and Downton Abbey are also a key discussion point. She also recommends some books that Alice may like to start with if she decides to read Sands, and the joys of Scottish humour are revered.

Welcome to Episode 6 of Wonderful Writers, a podcast dedicated to sharing some of our favourite authors and their wonderful books! In this episode, Alice declares her love to the world for Lenora Bell, another shining star that makes up the beautiful night sky of historical romance authors. Alice discovered Lenora Bell & as soon as she started reading the novels, she couldn't stop & her admiration for Lenora Bell is very present in this episode as she explains to Anne how much the books mean to her & how fabulous they are. There is a lot of manical laughter in this episode, a lot discussion of spies, great title choices, hate-kissing, brilliant plots, an explanation as to why everyone needs to read Bell's books & the Diet Coke advert - we can't be the only ones who remember it!  If you would like to see the Diet Coke advert, our personal favourite is this one - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJqkHL95JZs - but there are many more versions - we particularly enjoyed the Indiana Jones one!  We hope that you enjoy this episode, if you would like to talk to us about books, you can email us at [email protected] or DM us at our Instagram pages - Alice - @bookskindleandmorebooks Anne - @alwayslovereviews Episode may contain MINOR spoilers of Lenora Bell's novels.

Welcome to Episode 5 of Wonderful Writers, a podcast dedicated to sharing some of our favourite authors and their wonderful books! In this episode, Anne explores her adoration of the QUEEN of historical romance, Sarah MacLean, convincing Alice to try reading her many amazing books! MacLean has been an important part of Anne's romance reading journey over the years, & has a firm place in her heart & she wants everyone to read the many amazing series MacLean has published over the years. Discussion includes seriously alpha-alphas, heroines who are as strong & brilliant as goddesses, mythology, favourite MacLean characters, heroines being shot, being bought a bookshop & why it's normal, brilliant, great, fantastic & ok to be proud of reading romance! There's also advice on where to start if you're new to the books & an anecdote about when Anne unexpectedly met MacLean's sister.  We hope that you enjoy this episode, if you would like to talk to us about books, you can email us at [email protected] or DM us at our Instagram pages - Alice - @bookskindleandmorebooks Anne - @alwayslovereviews Episode may contain MINOR spoilers of Sarah MacLean's novels.

Welcome to Episode 4 of Wonderful Writers, a podcast dedicated to sharing some of our favourite authors and their wonderful books! In this episode, Alice discusses Rhenna Morgan's contemporary romance books, bringing us exceedingly alpha gents, love stories surrounding mafia men and their fiesty, strong female equals & an unsual hero name - Trevor! Anne reads very little contemporary (her imagination & heart are always stuck in the 1800s) & is a complete dark romance virgin, so it is up to Alice (who is more adventurous & brilliant with her reading choices) to explain all of the amazing characters in these books, & convince Anne to give the books a try! We discuss men who look after their mothers, alphas being imagined as giants & ask the important question, why do all these men lose their shirts on the covers of these books? (we don't need an answer, we just ponder it sometimes). We hope that you enjoy this episode, if you would like to talk to us about books, you can email us at [email protected] or DM us at our Instagram pages - Alice - @bookskindleandmorebooks Anne - @alwayslovereviews Episode may contain MINOR spoilers of Rhenna Morgan's novels.  Music opening - Aaron Buckley. - https://www.aaronbuckleymusic.com/

Welcome to Episode 3 of Wonderful Writers, a podcast dedicated to sharing some of our favourite authors and their wonderful books! In this episode, Anne discusses her adoration of any and all books written by historical romance author Eva Leigh. Alice has never read an Eva Leigh romance, so Anne explains why Leigh is one of the best authors ever published, whilst gushing over some of the prettiest covers ever printed. There is a serious (?!) discussion on the possibility of someone delivering a Duke to Anne, admiration of red ballgowns, a plethora of 'thank yous' and you could probably create your own drinking game for the amount of times the word 'orgy' is mentioned! We hope that you enjoy this episode, if you would like to talk to us about books, or even tell us about your favourite castle, you can email us at [email protected] or DM us at our Instagram pages - Alice - @bookskindleandmorebooks Anne - @alwayslovereviews Episode may contain MINOR spoilers of Eva Leigh's novels.

In this episode, Alice discusses her love of Cat Sebastian, a historical romance author whom - at the time of recording - Anne had not yet read! It is Alice's mission to encourage Anne to try the books leading to talk of waistcoats, broody heroes, favourite castles (we have actual degrees in castles, sooo, they'll come up a lot in our podcast) and the topic of mental health in romance novels is also broached.  We hope that you enjoy this episode, if you would like to talk to us about books, or even tell us about your favourite castle, you can email us at [email protected] or DM us at our Instagram pages -  Alice - @bookskindleandmorebooks Anne - @alwayslovereviews - Anxiety is mentioned briefly in this episode - Episode may contain MINOR spoilers of Cat Sebastian's novels.

Welcome to the first episode of Wonderful Writers! A podcast dedicated to sharing some of our favourite authors and their wonderful books! In this episode, we discuss our mutual adoration for historical romance author, Tessa Dare. We gush over her writing, laugh ourselves hoarse as we relieve why her books are so funny, cast back over memories of meeting her, and even decide who would play our favourite heroes when they create a drama of her novels (We believe Bridgerton is only the beginning for romance adaptations!) We hope you enjoy our first episode, you can contact us through our Instagram DMs if you wish! - Alice - @bookskindleandmorebooks Anne - @alwayslovereviews Episode may contain MINOR spoilers of Tessa Dare's novels.

Wonderful Writers is a podcast series dedicated to giving support to some of our favourite authors and their books. There will be a dollop of historical romance novelists, a dash of fantasy writers, a spoonful of contemporary recommendations, and a pinch of any other authors we happen to adore.  Alice and Anne are two friends from England who love reading and want to share their enthusiasm with the world. They bonded many moons ago over books, music, castles and a healthy-appreciation for the Regency Rake. They have both been running book Instagrams for several years, and decided to take it one step further with a podcast!    Anne - @alwayslovereviews Alice - @bookskindleandmorebooks
