We're turning up the heat for this week's selection of beach reads! Daisy has selected some holiday books with a distinct side of raunch. These are titles to make you blush, gasp and get even hotter under the collar (if your swimsuit happens to have a collar). There are books with an erotic edge, and some that are flat out filth. But which one has a character that makes 'Christian Grey look like Dougal from Father Ted'? You'll have to listen to find out. Discover more about the titles mentioned at our Bookshop.org shop.

Our guests include Dolly Alderton, Nina Stibbe, Nikesh Shukla, and many more favourites from our own bookshelves. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
