The best Book podcasts

Dive into the book podcast scene, where each episode is a new adventure into literature. Here, you'll discover podcasts that do more than review books. They change how we engage with stories and cover everything from fresh fiction to classic novels: these shows go beyond the page with deep literary analysis and exciting interviews. But let's check some of the book podcasts you will find here.
Start with Books, Beach, & Beyond, where hosts Elin Hilderbridge and Tim Ehrenberg chat with authors and bibliophiles. Or join Jordan Lloyd Bookey on The Reading Culture to learn about the world of stories and their impact. Each podcast celebrates books of different genres and how they bring us together.

Listen to authors and publishers

If you like more fun stuff, If Books Could Kill, hosted by Michael Hobbes and Peter Shamshiri, offers a great comedic critique on bestsellers. You can also get a good laugh with Help Hole as Sofie Hagen and Abby Wambaugh offer a funny take on self-help books.
For more intellectual angles, Read with Jenna is a great pod to listen to many different authors, and Ali Velshi's Velshi Banned Book Club explores the tales behind banned books, revealing stories that are often missed.
