Child of the Library Mareike S.

Hello everyone,
winter is over and we are well into spring - nature is blooming, temperatures are rising and falling back and forth and I would say this means it is time to do a little reading recap of the past season!

I can't wait to share my more in-depth thoughts on the books I read in winter. We have strong 5-star-books, books that almost catapulted me into a reading slump, easy-to-consume manga and historical dramas in the mix.

AND on top of that I also wanted to chat a bit about my recent logo refresh. I adore the new color scheme and I hope you enjoy it just as much as I do, but I wanted to give you a bit of background on why I chose these colors and what mood I want to convey moving forward when people see my podcast logo.

Here is also the link to my Frankfurt book fair friend's bookish Instagram and her 'Sock Sunday': https://www.instagram.com/larryliebtbuecher/

I hope you had a great few reading months - let's chat again once spring is over what great reads came our way :)

Hello everyone,
what a year it has been! So many great opportunities and lovely bookish encounters, but also some challenges along the way.

Let's wrap up how 2023 went and what my resolutions for 2024 are. I am turning 30 this year, so this will be a new chapter in my life in many ways :)

Thanks so much to Meideya for being a faithful supporter of my podcast! I can't wait to show and describe the cool jewelry pieces I got from them!

Hi everyone!
The dark season is upon us and right on time the Child of the Library podcast is back with a new episode. I am super stoked to share this cool new project with you, which I hope to convert into a permanent format on my podcast.

'The International Committee on (in this case) Twilight' is a collaboration of three women across three countries talking about their experiences with a certain book series. I am so happy to have Jordanne from the Books To Last podcast on this team, as well as a new friend called Ruby from the US!

We had so much fun producing this, recounting our memories and comparing the impact Twilight had in our three corners of the earth.

If you want to follow along with us for the portion of the episode where we compare the book covers, here is the link to the presentation that we are referencing:
https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1CA-FY_abFwQ8NN9nruWTSlJvnr1hrOXEM00fJdlACOI/edit?usp=share_link

Come check out Jordanne over on all her channels:

And if you want to find Ruby's podcast content you can visit the Murdermosas podcast. They are currently taking a break, but there is always a backlist catalogue, right?
https://open.spotify.com/show/5YTSy7uN10shaDEIIObGR2

And for everyone who is interested, this is the episode that the two of them recorded together over on Jordanne's podcast:
https://open.spotify.com/episode/70nm98bOtY4mUkCWs5pkOs

I hope you have just as much fun with this new format as Jordanne, Ruby and I!

And for everyone who stuck around until the end (also of these shownotes), here is the German translation of the covers:

Bis = until
Biss = bite
So the title "Bis(s) zum Morgengrauen" can mean "Until the dawn" or "Bite at dawn".

Hello everyone,
we are right in the middle of the year and I have some exciting news.

On top of some cool new books that I am going to talk about in this episode, I am so happy to announce that this episode was again done in partnership with Meideya Jewelry.

I have worn all of the pieces I talk about in this episode over the past weeks, some even for important client meetings at work and I am so happy with the quality and how classy they are.

Welcome to the 'Child of the Library' podcast?! More likely welcome BACK!

I know it has been a while, but let's return with a banger.

First of all, it was really fun to record this episode during our holiday in Greece. I had my little traveling microphone with me that I had used for my first two episodes. And it was very rewarding to go to the beach afterwards, haha. But please excuse any background noise made by playing children or hard-working cleaning staff. And sorry for the spiking in the audio sometimes - it is a tiny mic after all :)
Secondly, I just really love this topic because it is one of my biggest dreams to go to Japan one day.

Here is the link to the book nook I built: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CpaggaVIeSW/?igshid=MTc4MmM1YmI2Ng%3D%3D
So much 'Fuddelarbeit', I can tell you!

And here is the link to Barbara's boutique called 'Ble' on Zakynthos in Greece: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CsoiYGZMcdg/?igshid=MTc4MmM1YmI2Ng%3D%3D

And also the mentioned 'Memoirs of a Geisha' trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NwJw70Yufug
