We cross the Atlantic to catch up with Claire Handscombe, presenter and producer of BritLit), a fortnightly podcast that tracks what's going on in the British publishing world.

We talk about Claire's novel Unscripted), which she highly recommends as a beach read, whether you're able to go to an actual beach or just have to make do with a deckchair in your garden.

Claire also gives us a shelf's worth of great book recommendations, plus some top tips for anyone thinking of making a books podcast of their own.
