Podcast Recommendation

I’m going to go out on a limb and assume that if you’re subscribed to the email list, you enjoy reading. You may also enjoy podcasts, since they’ve grown in popularity over the past few years.

So how about a podcast about books?

Here’s the blurb for the Page 1 Challenge:

The Page 1 Challenge is a short-form podcast for book lovers where we DON’T judge a book by its cover.... or even by the author or the title! We judge it by reading the first page before knowing anything else about the book.

Can page 1 be captivating enough to make YOU want to read the book? That’s the challenge!

So, is judging a book by its first page fair? Oh, heck no! But it is a fun little game, and a refreshing change from the usual book review and author interview shows.

Of course, AFTER reading page 1 we do reveal the author and title, and we usually have some color commentary that the author provided just for our podcast listeners.

This is a great podcast. Short, to the point, and a great way to discover new books.

And I guess it’s technically a spoiler, but the latest episode is about Shadows of the Past!

Happy Summer or Winter, depending on where you are. Talk to you again in a couple of weeks.
