  • Two Amazing Booksellers

    Two Amazing Booksellers
    Jun 19 2025
    We have been skimping on including independent booksellers in our show lately (and we are sorry) but here is a whole show worth of bookseller conversations! Source Books in Detroit Michigan is owned by Janet Webster Jones. And Print: A Bookstore in Portland ME is owned by Emily Russo. These are two incredible independent booksellers with two incredible stores. It’s a master class in bookselling on this week’s Book Case!

  • Jess Walter is So Far Gone

    Jess Walter is So Far Gone
    Jun 12 2025
    Jess Walter has written a book that is funny, compulsively readable, and complex. In So Far Gone, he reminds us, in a world that sometimes seems to have gone crazy, you escape society at your own peril. Can you escape the world into isolation or is life only meaningful when you live it for and with others? We ask the very talented Jess Walter that very question.

  • Andrew Porter Writes a Family Story

    Andrew Porter Writes a Family Story
    Jun 5 2025
    Andrew Porter’s newest, The Imagined Life, is a beautiful and atmospheric novel following a man on a search for his father, who disappeared decades ago. Tangled up in the complications of academia, the issues of exploring sexuality, and the haunting visions of the inappropriate parties his parents threw in his backyard, Stephen struggles to piece together the answers he needs so that he can create the life he wants. This novel is subtle, complex, and beautifully written. Join us this week to find out how Andrew created an incredible novel out of the subtleties of family dynamics.

Great podcast. Keep up the good work.
I have always been a big reader & your podcasts are so interesting & inspiring. I love the end when you interview a local bookstore. We have to support local bookstores.

Love ❤️ this podcast

One of my favorite authors and I adore the Thursday Murder Club series. Kate, you nearly lost me with your suggestion of Tom Cruise for the movie version. Uncharacteristically wrong. Check out the Facebook groups which are casting the movie!

Podcast is almost better than the books!

Kate & Charlie Gibson talk about books and interview a wide range of authors, many you’ll know, several you’ll be thrilled to learn about. So fun and informative. Recently they visited the Library of Congress and that was a fascinating listen. You know Charlie from Good Morning America (etc) and you’ll be delighted by his daughter Kate who is whip smart and funny.

Book lovers will love this, and less avid readers will be motivated to pick up a book

I can't say enough good things about this podcast - it's interesting and helpful and insightful. Kate and Charlie ask for suggestions for how to make the podcast better, and I wouldn't change a thing! I've recommended it quite a few times, but always with the warning - don't listen unless you want to greatly expand your "want to read" list! I never would have found "This is Happiness" without Kate and Charlie, and it was my favorite book (of the 60) that I read last year. I recommended the book to one of my book clubs (yes I'm in 2), and never has a book been more universally loved. Thank you for expanding MY reading horizons! Keep up the awesome work, and thank you for all that you do to make this podcast happen!

Expand your reading horizons!
