First Edition

Love this new addition to the Book Riot podcasts. I’m getting so many new book recommendations and have found myself persuaded to read books I wasn’t previously excited about (and possibly a bit of the opposite, too, which I appreciate so I’m not spinning my wheels on books I’m not going to love). Looking forward to November’s episode already!!

…their site should be called, Book Snob. This last episode where they picked the It Books of the Year was my last Book Riot podcast (and I’ve subscribed to many of their shows over several years). They weren’t picking the “best” of the year, instead the “it” books of the year and of course Fourth Wing and Spare should have both been on it, not just Fourth Wing begrudgingly. For the record, I’ve not read either. But they were two of the most talked about books of the year! For the record. I’m a liberal, rare book librarian who reads across genres and you would think I would be their target demographic. But, no thanks! Not anymore.

Very cool and interesting to hear what is happening at Red Tower Books. Thanks, Jeff, for introducing me to Fourth Wing. Am age 70 and cannot wait for the second book release in November. Older humans love dragons, too. Deb Romary

I love this podcast! I love getting a bit of an insiders perspective into what’s happening in the book world. I also love the very literary interviews that happen on this podcast. They’re wide ranging, but always fascinating.
