Chapter Eight - Do you read non-fiction?
Listen now
Description
In Chapter 8 Claire and Rebecca sit down and delve a bit deeper into the world of non-fiction.  Why do we read non-fiction? What constitutes non-fiction? And why do we not read as much non-fiction when we compare it to the amount of fiction we consume?  We hope you enjoy listening to our discussion as much as we enjoyed having it. — Recommended / Suggested books: The Kennedy Curse by James Patterson Perversion of Justice: The Jeffrey Epstein Story by Julie K.
