Loves Labours Watched

This week we had the pleasure of chatting to Helly Acton, author of debut novel The Shelf. The Shelf follows protagonist Amy, who is unceremoniously dumped by her boyfriend on a new reality TV show and tasked, alongside six other contestants, to complete challenges that'll turn her into a 'keeper' and win the show. We had a great time listening to the audiobook, which is read by Normal People star and LLW fave Daisy Edgar-Jones. We also loved connecting with Helly to discuss feminism, sexism and reality television and followed that up with all our thoughts on reality TV in today's modern world, from Love Island to new hit Selling Sunset. Enjoy!
