Episode 52: We Love it When Everyone KNOWS They’re In a Murder Mystery (Bookswap with Emma Cole + Part One of my Lord Peter Wimsey episode series!)

Back after an unplanned hiatus of a few months, I’ve started a mini-series of Bookswap episodes to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the release of the first Lord Peter Wimsey novel by Dorothy L. Sayers. This is my favourite book series of all time, and I thought it would be fun to get a younger reader (my ever-reliable podcast partner Emma) to read this mystery novel from 100 years ago and then swap it with a much newer mystery, Maureen Johnson’s Truly Devious series. You can listen to the episode here or on almost any podcast platform.

Here are some links to books we talked about:

The Lord Peter Wimsey mysteries by Dorothy L. Sayers
The Truly Devious series by Maureen Johnson
Other books featuring the same characters by Maureen Johnson: The Box in the Woods and Nine Liars
Turtles All the Way Down, by John Green
Big Summer, by Jennifer Weiner
