Summer Submersion on Radio Book Club

Is there seasonality to your reading habits? Do you like books that are more fizzy in the summer and more contemplative in the winter? Or, like one of Radio Book Club’s intrepid hosts, does the weather (and your reading) find you wanting to dive deep…to the bottom of the ocean? Submerse yourself in literary works on the latest Radio Book Club. Hosts feature books they can’t stop thinking about. A page turning gothic horror. A lyrical novel engaging all five senses. An anxiety inducing main character. Take a dive into these works and tune in!
