  • 6: Community Chest! Inside the Book & Board Game Communities
    Nov 12 2025

    We know, we've been away and missed an episode, we had an amazing time at York Board Games Convention, but we are back now.

    In this episode of Board Games and Book Club, we catch up on the latest books we’ve been reading and games we’ve been playing before diving into Read Between the Lines.

    Then, we explore the wonderful worlds of the book and board game communities — from cozy book clubs and game groups to online spaces full of recommendations, reviews, and shared passion. We chat about what makes each community special, how they’ve changed, and the friendships and fun that come with being part of them.

  • 4: Rereads & Revelations! Going Back to Childhood Favourites
    Oct 1 2025

    In this episode of the Board Games and Book Club Podcast, we share the latest books we’ve been reading and the games we’ve been playing, before diving into another round of Read Between the LKines (we are still open to suggestions).

    Then it’s time for our feature discussion: rereading books from childhood. From the comfort reads that shaped us to the surprises (good and bad) of returning to old favourites, we explore what it’s like to revisit the stories that first sparked our love of reading.
