RePresented https://RePresented.podbean.com The podcast where we re-present downtrodden books, showing them in their best light and acting as their defence in the court of public opinion.

Wedding day jitters turn to cold dread once Andy discovers a secret letter.

Revenge Wears Prada sat at 2.89 stars on goodreads at the time of recording (but that has been pushed up to 3.02 owing to the release of the new film. Not that I'd know about such things)

Defending this piece of work is the lovely Greg!

 

In our show we take a look at the books that everyone seems to hate. We stand up for mocked and derided literature, a lone defender doing their best to fight the conditioned ideas of the court of public opinion.

Every episode a member of the group has to convince the rest of us that their assigned book has been unfairly judged. As a benchmark we're using goodreads.com, anything on their site with at least 100 reviews and a rating of less than 3 stars is, we think, deserving of a fair appeal hearing.
