I tend to skip the other episodes, but A Good Read is one of my favourite podcasts of all time. Love listening in and picking up new recommendations - and re-reading books through guests’ experiences.

Love the podcast, however, I wish Harriett Gilbert would let her guests say the point/quote they started instead of railroading them/fishing the quote herself.
