Chapter Three - Interview with author Catherine Walsh
When we were brainstorming who we could invite to be our first author interview, we had a short list of criteria: We wanted an Irish author, someone who had a book recently released, and someone who we could have a bit of craic with and this lady came straight to mind. Catherine Walsh is the new queen of contemporary Romance in Ireland (and elsewhere if the reviews are anything to go by!) and one of the funnest accounts to follow on Bookstagram. Fun aside, Catherine raises some really excellent points about the lack of visibility and respect for Romance as a genre and we suspect you might think a bit differently about it after you’ve heard her speak…Both the author and her books have been an absolute joy to get to know and we hope you love the episode as much as we do.Catherine's RecommendationsA book to get into reading or get back into reading after a slump Do a re-read of an old favouriteWho are your go-to authors?

Chapter Two - Interview with Sinéad Cuddihy
Sinéad Cuddihy was the first person we both wanted to interview in a bookish podcast. Why? Because she runs the Tired Mammy Book Club and has encouraged us both to pick up a book and get back into reading at a time when we needed that little push of encouragement. Sinéad’s monthly book club, which is not just for mammies btw, has brought some wonderful books into our lives and has connected us to some of the loveliest people on this little corner of the internet. Sinéad never fails to amaze us with her ability to have a job, be a mammy, run a household, AND run a hugely successful online book club on top of it all! Her levels of organisation are inspirational and to top it all off she’s fairly sound too! So, throw the kettle on, grab a cuppa - bonus points if it’s a TMBC mug - and relax to this episode of Another Chapter.Sinéad's RecommendationsReading Slump Advice Just let it happen!
