Camilla Thurlow - You're Booked

This week we are perusing the bookshelves of human rights campaigner, former Explosive Ordnance Disposal Officer, Love Island inhabiter and all-round inspiration Camilla Thurlow! Camilla has worked for land mine charity The Halo Trust, she's a vociferous reader and has recently published her first book, a memoir, called Not The Type. During a highly revealing conversation, we talked to her about the double-edged sword that is social media, the genius of Elizabeth Day, the appeal of old books and allowing stories to leak into your life.
