Clare Mackintosh Book Club pick
20th August was publication day and the day Blurred Lines was chosen as September’s pick for Clare Mackintosh’s Book Club. I’m a massive fan of Clare’s books and had so much fun interviewing her last year around the launch of best-selling ‘After The End’ in hardback. She spoke brilliantly and touchingly about the ethics and background of the story.
