Customer Reviews
Great Books+Great Book Reviews=Incredible Podcast
I love this podcast! I cannot get enough of it! The reviews provide context and background to really help the listener understand what the book is about and its larger literary and societal significance.
MY FAVORITE of the podcasts I listen to weekly
Although I love books, I don't have much time to read these days. The NYT Book Review podcast allows me to keep up-to-date with newly published books through interviews of a book's author or reviewer. Worth far more than the 20 minutes it takes to listen to it. I've been able to identify several great books to send as gifts by listening to the Review Podcast over the last couple of months. This is my favorite of the 10-12 podcasts I listen to weekly.
An excellent Podcast
This is an awesome Podcast I would be happy to recommend to everyone. Podcasting is a new medium and yet this Podcast sounds so natural that it feels like it has always been around, like a great friend. I feel informed, entertained, inspired and maybe even educated after each episode. Thanks very much to those who take the time to produce this for me, ATG
