It's been a while since our last episode, but that's because WE'VE BEEN READING! That's right, if you've come across bookstagram, booktube and now booktok, you'd know that reading is IN now. On this episode, we chat with Amanda Chong, lawyer, poet, and co-founder of ReadAble, to discuss some essential feminist reads - except they aren't the usual picks you'd expect.

Between looking out for big age gaps, grand gestures of love, how do we know if it's a case of being groomed?
