Do you ever feel the need to hide from the world in a book? We do! All the time! This episode showcases our favourite books to read in turbulent times - with a generous side of caveats.

Our shelf-help segment this week includes our top recommendations for a documentary-style novel - perfect for fans of Daisy Jones and the Six!
