On this episode of Shelf Care: The Podcast, host Susan Maguire talks to the hosts of another podcast, Reading Glasses. Mallory O’Meara and Brea Grant chat with Susan about reading wheelhouses, extol the virtues of the library, and encourage folks not to read books they don’t want to read. Then, Audio Editor Heather Booth shares the kinds of books that do not make the best-of lists, and Susan talks to Books for Youth’s Senior Editor Maggie Reagan about books for healing and books for fun.
