Welcome to the fifty-first episode of the Tea in the Treetops podcast hosted by Philippa and Anni.
In this episode we list some anticipated spec-fic #LoveOZYA books coming out in 2017 (that’s YA books by Aussie authors, for the uninitiated). We also chat about some books we’ve been reading, including The Raven Cycle by Maggie Stiefvater, and Lady Helen and the Dark Days Pact by Alison Goodman. This episode was recorded on 14 February 2017.
We hope you enjoy listening and we would love to hear your feedback. Is there anything you would like us to talk about in particular? Just let us know!
