Yes, after a long hiatus, the Smug Book Club boys are back!

But rather than our normal approach where we review and analyse a book, we're doing something a little different. So, strap yourself in and get ready for a breakdown of our 6 favourite books we read in 2019.

That means 3 from Callum, and 3 from Ryan. Because, you know, fairness.

So, what are these 6 glorious novels? Well, in no real order (I can't remember what sequence we recorded the episode in, okay?) here they are:

  • 'Lonesome Dove,' by Larry McMurtry
  • 'The Fifth Season,' by N. K. Jemisin
  • 'Station Eleven,' by Emily St. John Mandel
  • 'The Blue Fox,' by Sjón
  • 'Flights,' by Olga Tokarczuk
  • 'The Brief And Frightening Reign Of Phil,' by George Saunders

Mmmm, each one of them is a tasty treat you're sure to love devouring. Enjoy the podcast!

(Also, massive thanks to Daniel Staley for doing the edit!)
