Today you heard from Babak Saeed, whose novel is No God But Us, and from Meg Mason, whose book is Sophie Standing There.
And make sure you're following the book show on ABC Listen or wherever you get your podcasts, because next time I am going to be talking to Vikas Swaroop.
He is a former Indian diplomat, but most importantly, he is the guy who wrote the novel Q&A, which became the film Slumdog Millionaire.
He has a new book.
It's called The Girl with Seven Lives, and it does introduce us to another slumdog.
But this girl, she's not going to be a millionaire.
In fact, she might get murdered.
Make sure you come back next time for that one.
Big thank you to Sarah Lestrange, the producer of the book show.

Congratulations to Omar Moussa.
His hard work has paid off.
He is now the winner of this year's Miles Franklin Literary Award for his novel about Borneo, palm oil, complicity and tree ghosts.
I'm Clare Nicholls and this is a bonus episode of The Book Show to celebrate Omar's award-winning novel, Fierce Land.

Hey, Omar.
Congratulations.
Can you tell me how you found out, Omar?
Well, it must mean so much to your dad as well because, I mean, this all started with, you know, stories of your dad's homeland, right?
So what do you need to know about Fierce Land?
It is about two siblings, Rosanna and Harun, who are mourning the death of their dad.
