september 2026: memoirs

We had the pleasure of  @KeriBooks  joining us on the pod this month to chat all things memoir with  @JennyKing  With a penchant for cults, death, narrative gimmicks and celebrity memoirs, we hope we've lightened the tone with a few dogs thrown in there too! Also, Sarah actually loved Enlightenment by Sarah Perry! Jenny is a fool.
