Welcome to the 33rd episode of The Bookcast Club, a book podcast for people who love to read and talk books. Today we're talking 'My Life in Books' with Anna from Books on the Go, a weekly podcast that we love here at The Bookcast Club. You can also find Anna on Instagram.

Support The Bookcast Club
You can support the podcast on Patreon. We have a variety of tiers starting at just $2 a month, offering early access to the podcast, bonus episodes and book recommendations tailored to you. Our aim, when we hit $75 a month, is to set up a fund to allow those with less money to buy books. If you are happy to donate for no reward you can do so on our website. A free way to show your support, and a very effective way of spreading the word, is to mention us on social media or review us on iTunes.

Visit our Book Shop
You can buy all the books we mention on the podcast in our Book Shop. Bookshop.org is a great platform if you want easy book shopping without supporting the likes of Amazon. They support independent book shops and we earn a small commission on each sale, which helps with the running costs of this podcast. However, we would always encourage you to make the effort and shop with your local independent book shop. Many have gone to great efforts to develop an online presence and we're sure most, if not all, will take orders over the phone. You can find a list of independent bookshops to support on our website, many of which do home delivery.
