Shelf Life
Grand JournalShelf Life is a show about books and the people who love them. In each episode, we invite a celebrated bibliophile (think Alan Cumming, John Waters, and Joyce Maynard) to select two of their favorite books, and then we chat about them, drawing connections between their lit choices and their lives and careers.

- Pleasant surprise
I love this program as it constantly inspires me. Hearing the discussions weekly allows me the chance to digress from my usual noise and focus a bit on new ideas and new ways of looking at things. Aarons voice is particularly soothing and charming at the same time.

Thoughtful & entertaining! Brilliant concept, authors talking not only about their new projects but books they love, books that have moved and inspired them. Aaron is incredibly engaging asking poignant questions, you feel like you are listening in to a private conversation, one that make you want to pick up a book and read read read!
