Details

28 May 2019

 Galway Bay FM, Galway's local radio station launched their brand new Book Club in May 2019, and we here at Kennys Bookshop are delighted to be partnering up with them! The first book reviewed in June was Emma Hannigan's 'The Gift of Friends' by Emma Hannigan.

Each month, Kennys will recommend a few books & members will have the opportunity to select via a poll what book they would like to hear reviewed each month on The Alan Murphy Show. From fiction to literature to non-fiction, there will be a great mix of books recommended & we look forward to joining the monthly discussions live on air with Alan Murphy and others, to discuss the books of the month!

The first book reviewed in June was Emma Hannigan's 'The Gift of Friends' by Emma Hannigan - Des Kenny joined the chat along with others - have a listen to our June Book Club discussion here!
