This is the Book Right Podcast. I'm Jeff O'Neill.

And I'm Rebecca Shinsky.

And we come to you after the July 4th break.

I hope if you had one, you enjoyed it, we're recording recording before we've got some real summer afternoon

vibes going on right now and we're gonna get in some news of the the week it's kind of a

potpourri and we're gonna start with some impressions from the American Library Association Convention that I attended, some listener feedback, some other news from Frontlist Foyer.

But before that, I think we want to tell you about the Patreon which we let's see we're taking a break for the break and then we come back after and that's is a never-ending story the next thing that's going to show up there is that we're going to do next I don't have the

schedule in front of me never ending story is going to be in the main feed oh the main feed

my mistake yeah it'll be in this feed we will be actually we'll be out of the

patreon for two weeks one for the 4th of July and one for you'll be on

on PTO and I probably I haven't looked because I'm sure there's pain for me

coming up because that's how these things work at some point I'm sure

I'll do a long stint there but go check out today in books over there as well and

that's a lot of the preview of what we talk about the show it's almost like a

director's commentary on today of books right now, the Book Riot Podcast. Or yeah, a little bit.

Is the vice versa? I don't know. I think it's the yeah. Yeah, to me today in

books feels like the vetting process because we can feature three or four things a day in today in books and usually the most interesting of those things make it to the podcast.
