1. Do you like to read? in this conversation with Alen the owner of Valencia's First English Book Shop “Book Lovers” we go into the world of books and reading Sheila West 25:40

How we read does not really matter, it’s the sheer joy of reading that nurtures our soul.

It’s making that time for yourself even for just 10 minutes a day to read for joy or education and why books are good companions and can give us great insights and ideas

How important is reading for children and the joy of a bedtime story for both the child and the adult, and how reading can create very special memories.

Have you ever thought about the power on connection to others through our love of books, in a book club or just a simple reading group there is joy to be had.

Alen talks about why he decided to open the Book Lovers bookshop and his plans for the future with the new bigger shop and finding your next good read.

My name is Sheila currently living in Spain and enjoying my life in Valencia. My idea was to have conversations with interesting people and get those stories told.

I never knew what to expect when I began my podcast over two years ago, the conversations I have had are stories with laughter, tears and a great insight into the lives of amazing people.  So to bring the two together is just sheer joy.
