I love podcasts. There are podcasts on absolutely everything you would ever want to hear about! And most are between 30 – 45 minutes, which I think is the perfect length. I don’t have a long commute to work, and my walks are generally that amount of time. I used to listen to audible books, but it was hard for me to sustain interest over an eight-hour book when I could only listen in short bursts. Podcasts are perfect for that. As I said, there are podcasts on every subject imaginable, but my favorite are the ones on books. I have always loved to hear what people are reading, and this is the perfect way to find out about new books and backlist books as well. Some of my favorite books this year I first heard about on a podcast. There are so many different shows you can listen to. Here, I listed my top 5 bookish podcasts. I hope you enjoy listening to these! The Librarian is In This is a fun podcast, put on by two New York City librarians, Frank and Gwen. They are hilarious. I love to listen to their back and forth conversation. […]
