We're not just book nerds. We're professional book nerds! We are staff librarians who work at OverDrive, the leading app for eBooks and audiobooks from public libraries and schools. It's our job to discuss books all day long so we thought, "Why not share the conversation!"

Titles discussed are available to borrow through public libraries. Get started reading at overdrive.com and subscribe to our podcast today!
