Sometimes we look back on a season of great podcasts (humble podcasts hosts that we are) and consider what we like best within a season.  Today, we look at the summer that was.  From the great epistolary novel, The Correspondent by Virginia Evans to non-stop laughs with Dave Barry to the magical world of Leigh Bardugo, there is something for everyone in this episode.  Join us as we look back on a truly great summer of reading.  Plus we hear from the owners of the recently opened Cranford Bookstore in Cranford, NJ.
