What Should I Read Next?

Hosted ByAnne Bogel

What Should I Read Next? is the show for every reader who has ever finished a book and faced the problem of not knowing what to read next. Each week, Anne Bogel, of the blog Modern Mrs Darcy, interviews a reader about the books they love, the books they hate, and the books they're reading now. Then, she makes recommendations about what to read next. The real purpose of the show is to help YOU find your next read.

Ep 15: The audacity to tell people what to read

Anne chatswithMarybeth WhalenandAriel LawhonofSheReads.org, an online reading site and book club for women. Under Marybeth and Ariel’s leadership, She Reads does a terrific job of highlighting excellent titles you’ve never heard of.

These women are writers as well as curators and reviewers:Ariel is the author ofFlight of DreamsandThe Wife, the Maid, and the Mistress.Marybeth is the author ofThe Things We Wish Were True.

This is a special episode: it’s WSIRN’s first freewheeling conversation about book recommendations and the reading life. Anne talks with Marybeth and Arielabout how they became a go-to book resource for thousands of readers, why you have to be a little bossy to recommend books (and why Marybeth and Ariel are overqualified for the job), and how they keep reading FUN even when—and especially when—it’s a job.
