25+ Best Book Podcasts — Best Podcasts for Book Lovers | Town & Country

By Emily Burack, Feb 23, 2022

From article…

If you love to read, podcasts may not be your first choice of medium; however, there are a number of incredible book podcasts out there.

So just for literature lovers looking to step outside the book, we rounded up our favorite podcasts—from a grown-up version of Reading Rainbow to conversations recorded live from the most famous bookstore in Paris to a project centered on immersive poetry reading.

There are podcasters who only read celebrity memoirs, interviewers who only speak with debut authors, and Harry Potter super fans who are rereading the series, one chapter at a time.

Without further ado, here are 27 recommendations for book podcasts spanning genre (fantasy! romance! classics!) and location (books in translation! Indigenous authors! books from the Middle East!). There’s something for everyone here—just as long as you love to read.
