    Thanks so much for your show. I only stumbled on it in January and I’ve since binge-listened to every single back episode. Your energy together and complimenting personalities is delightful. I’m surprised that you don’t know much about the publishing industry but you offer another element to my reading life I don’t get from other podcasts.

    A comment to spoilers: I think it is totally fair to spoil backlisted books. How else could you discuss them? Books are about the reading experience and the plot is really not important in most books except newly published works. Think of movies. It’s fair to tak about the end of Love Story but not what is currently in theatres.

    The Slate Audio Book Club handles it well. They open with a disclaimer that spoilers will be heard. They do discuss new hardcovers and I hold off listening till I’ve read.

    Don’t change anything. You’re great.
