Episode 9: An Editor in Love With Outer Space and Romance Novels

Blind Date With a Book

In this episode, we match up Jaime Green, a freelance writer and editor, with six books. Jaime wrote a romance recommendations column for The New York Times and is a series editor for Best American Science and Nature Writing. Her book about the ways we imagine life beyond Earth in science and science fiction. Look will be published by Hanover Square Press in 2023. She recently loved reading The Second Season, The Method, and Nightbitch, and her dream vacation is a beach chair and a book, with a fancy hotel waiting at the end of a sunny day. She prefers not to read classic novels, but she does love singing Avril Lavigne's "Sk8r Boi" at karaoke.
