Catch up with Jennie and Pari on our For the Love of Books podcast with a new Bea's Books edition.

Today's theme is Heroes and Villains - essential parts to any good story.

Find out Jennie and Pari's recommendations this week and see if you'll be adding them to your To-Be-Read pile.

All the books are available from your local library either on the shelf or to reserve.

Don't forget you can leave us some feedback using #FLBpodcast or #BeasBooks or by emailing librarypodcast@northlan.gov.uk. On podcast platforms that allow ratings, we'd always appreciate a rating too.
