This week, we are delving back into the archive to revisit our series 5 trip to America in the company of the incredible Taylor Jenkins Reid! When we met Taylor in 2019, Daisy Jones and the Six had just been released. It went on to be a global smash with a recent, lauded Amazon adaptation and in this episode Taylor discusses many of the books that inspired the novel. Her other books, including The 7 Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, Malibu Rising and Carrie Soto is Back, have all been celebrated best-sellers. We met Taylor in West Hollywood, LA and the delightful confines of the great Book Soup bookstore and talked to her about rock memoirs, Bridget Jones, gift giving, influential reads and the delights of seeing your own book in the book shop.
