Join three old school friends: Fi, Annie and Sophie, as we talk books of all shapes and sizes. Fi is our resident scientist and compulsive buyer of books, Annie is a future Doctor of English Literature and bringer of our literary credentials and Sophie's a former Eng Lit student and chronic non-finisher of books. Together we are aiming to read at least one book a month and for the rest of it be very loud about our book (and non-book related) opinions.

Welcome back to this general chat episode of The Lazy Sunday Book Club. This week we are discussing poetry: what we like and dislike about poetry, why we may or may not read it, and so on, as well as discussing five poems chosen for us by Annie, our resident poetry lover.
