Juvenile and YA Fiction: Mystery Novels BiblioFiles: A CenterForLit Podcast about Great Books, Great Ideas, and the Great Conversation

The next genre we're discussing this season has a special place in Andrews family lore. By tradition, each new generation is handed a mystery novel as they come of age to encourage a lifetime love of reading. Adam joins Ian in this episode to discuss his own affinity for the genre, and the two reminisce about their first encounters with detective fiction.
