Like many others, by the time the new year break rocks around, our team are due for a bit of a re-charge away from the desk. Sometimes the best way to do this is to read a book, listen to a podcast, chuck on a new playlist or get comfortable in front of the TV.
So, to share the love, we thought we’d put together our 2021/2022 book/podcast/music/TV/movie recommendations in one carefully curated list.
We’ll say it now – you’re welcome. After all, we spend most of our workdays reading and listening, so we wouldn’t recommend anything that wasn’t worth your time. Check out what the iCLAW team is reading this summer below.
