  • Love Love Love This Podcast

    There are 3 main reasons. (1) The chatty conversations of Tim and Elin. (2) The guests talk about their start, what they like about writing, where they write, books they love, people they meet during book signings, their favorite authors, everything. And no. (3) is Nantucket. I don’t know where Nantucket is, but I want to walk the streets, visit bookstores, eat in restaurants, stay in the hotel. I listen to Podcast when exercising on the treadmill for 30 minutes and can’t wait for next day t... more

  • Great Guests

    Thanks for this. I’ve never read Elin but have read many books of the podcast guests. Goes without saying that Ann Patchett is the best of the best and her orbit touches no one else.

  • Please Include Links

    I LOVE this podcast but would greatly appreciate links to the books mentioned. If they could be listed in the order they are discussed, even better. It gets frustrating to stop repeatedly to search the list in the notes and then look them up. Other than that, the podcast is 5+ stars-informative, fast-paced in a good way, and completely entertaining!
