Welcome to your new favorite literary podcast! Books and the City Podcast is hosted by four New York City-dwelling, book-nerd best friends who met for one Bookstagram book club, and the rest was history. Unlike most bookish podcasts, each episode of Books and the City stays spoiler-free. Every Monday, the hosts come prepared to discuss the last book they read, meaning you’ll walk away from each weekly episode with four new must-read titles! Pour yourself a glass of whatever, and meet your new favorite book club.
