Another double banger episode and it is a beauty. Travel and food writer Jane Lawson takes us inside the Japan she has known for more than 40 years with her latest book 'Secret Japan' (Simon & Schuster). Jane shares some unique insights into making the most of your time in Japan. 

And then we go from your bucket list to a f*#*it list.   

Author Rachel Fox McLeod explains what that means as we discuss her latest novel 'Disgraceful' (Simon& Schuster). Her book's main character Grace is a woman on a mission and it is not from God.
