I love to hear people speak enthusiastically about their favorite books! But I wish more genre books were featured more frequently.
Love this show. Perfect for helping to choose our next bookclub reads
Feel Sorry for me - I’ve lost 60 mins of my life listening to one of these shows ‘best books of summer’ .. true I played it at 1.3x speed so I may have lost closer to 45 mins. Of that 45 mins the audio was punctuated by two women giggling like schoolgirls on the back of the school bus.
Thank you!
I recommend this inspiring podcast to my neighbors, my family, my friends and the patrons at my library! I am a Children’s Services Librarian, a first grade teacher before that, and a bookseller before that!
Could I endorse the passion for reading any more?!
Thank-you for supporting all the fabulous bibliophiles in the world Ann! I love your podcast!
