Description

Send us Fan MailThe Red Fern Book Review is back!We begin with a look at the Japanese cult favourite Butter by Asako Yuzuki. It is a sharp, unsettling novel that explores appetite, obsession, and the cultural weight of food and femininity.We then turn to my personal favourite book of 2025, The Correspondent by Virginia Evans—a quietly powerful and deeply moving epistolary novel about connection, memory, and the surprising intimacy of written words.Also featured in this episode:The Phoenix Crown by Kate Quinn and Janie ChangThe House of Belonging by David WhyteFollow Red Fern Book Review:Website and to leave a voicemail: https://www.redfernbookreview.comInstagram: @redfernbookreviewFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/redfernbookreview/Newsletter: https://www.redfernbookreview.com/newsletter
