    If you've been following the podcast for a while, you'll know that each season of The Community Library is about 19-22 episodes. So, my friends, you might have guessed that this is the last episode in season 6. Join me for a little catch up with what I’ve been reading and watching in the past few weeks, and I’ll see you next season!

  • 6.21 The Comfort of the End of the World

    6.21 The Comfort of the End of the World
    May 1 2024

    A couple of weeks ago, I accidentally read a post-apocalyptic book and watched a post-apocalyptic movie in the same week, and I decided I needed to talk about them. This episode is about La Jetée (1962), directed by Chris Marker, and I Who Have Never Known Men (1995), written by Jacqueline Harpman. I hope you enjoy.

  • 6.20 Future and Freedom in the 1970s

    6.20 Future and Freedom in the 1970s
    Apr 17 2024

    Last year, I embarked on a challenge to read a book published in every single year of the 20th Century. When I catalogued all the books from the 20th Century I’d already read, I found the 1970s to be the decade from which I had read the least. In this episode, I take you through my journey of reading books published in 1970, 1973, 1974, 1976 and 1978.

    For more links and resources, visit my website www.angourieslibrary.com


    Books I read to complete the challenge:

    • 1978: Tirra Lirra by the River by Jessica Anderson
    • 1974: Oreo by Fran Ross
    • 1973: Rubyfruit Jungle by Rita Mae Brown
    • 1976: Woman on the Edge of Time by Marge Piercy
    • 1970: Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret by Judy Blume

Such a good listen

Can’t believe no one has submitted a review yet.

Such a good listen, I try to listen to at least one or 2 podcasts a day, as I’m not a big reader and more of a listener it’s a great way to hear more about books that interest me.

And just a relaxing listen 😊
