I continue to really enjoy and appreciate your podcasts. The review of the novels by Henrietta was good fun as well as being informative. I was so glad that a review of John Boyne's book, Air, was included as I so admire his work. Thanks Enda to both you and Peter for the time you put into the podcast. I love the toaster challenge when it happens. Good luck, Charlie
