by Newstalk

In Top 5 Books Shane Coleman asks various people of interest to pick their five favourite books. Shane delves into what made these five books particularly memorable or significant in their lives. Did a writer, story or topic resonate with a particular time in their life? Did it change them as a person? Or was it just a bloody good read? Top 5 Books explores interesting lives and the great books which help define them.

    Very interesting and informative
    Very interesting to hear about what 5 books authors choose. I will never pick Angel Nagle’s choices. Terribly uninteresting and boring. But I guess that’s what makes this podcast so interesting. Very candid and informative. But still, my God her choices are dull, dull, dull.
