00:00The Chemist by A.A. Dand. It is a crime novel. It is set at Headingley Pharmacy by A.A.
00:09Dand
00:10used to be the pharmacist there. He owned the pharmacy there. And it was my local pharmacy
00:17where he dispensed drugs to me. And so there was that. This is Headingley. This is a crime
00:27drug gang story playing out predominantly in Headingley. So it's wonderfully local.
00:33Catcher in the Rye is a book which I got told growing up, you should read it when you're in
00:39transition, when you're going from GCSEs to A levels, when you've done your A levels going to
00:43uni, you should read Catcher in the Rye. It captures, and I read it quite recently, it captures this
00:47feeling of unease, angst, being a young person who's having to face the world a little bit more.
00:53What everybody is saying, it's written by Joe Navarro. And to be honest, it's one of the few
00:58books that was higher than my intelligence and I actually learned something from it. It actually
01:03allowed me to understand how non-verbally our body can signal basically what's on our mind.
01:10Fraction of the Hole, that's an Australian book which I read quite last year. That was, I can't
01:16necessarily say it's great for summer or any specific time, but it's a very introspective
01:21book which looks at life growing up and the philosophy or thoughts that you may have behind
01:28becoming your own version of a man.
