We’re three women who work at the library who are sharing our passion for books by taking an in depth look at popular fantasy, sci-fi and mystery books in real time as we read them. Each week we’ll dive into today’s most popular books and talk about what we’ve read so far through three different reading styles: audiobook listener, ebook reader/physical and someone who bounces from audio to physical to ebook. Join the discussion as we discuss theories and interact with our listeners.
