0:00.0	You're listening to all the backlist, a weekly show about books that are not new.
0:15.0	I'm your host, Liberty Hardy, and I'm little in the middle, but I've got much backlist.
0:19.6	Today is November 10th, 2023, and for this week's episode I'm going to talk about a couple of great
0:24.7	backlist titles related to the week's new releases.
0:28.4	So hello, how is everyone?
0:31.6	It is Friday. It is my cat's birthday. Cats plural, the little
0:36.4	orange boys. They're five years old today, which seems impossible. But it's

2:05.6	thanks again to National Geographic books for sponsoring this episode.
2:08.8	Today's episode is brought to you by Gallery Books. I'm super excited to talk about this next one.
