Listen "The Best?!? 100 Books"

Episode Synopsis

Welcome to the “Nothing is Wrong with You” book podcast.
Today, we discuss the good, the bad, and the ugly of lists that rank books, with a focus on the recent New York Times ranking of the best 100 books of the century–and the subsequent list they crowdsourced readers to develop. We share what books we thought should be on the list, which ones we abandoned, and which choices left us confused.  
Plus, we recommend the poignant and captivating book The Postcard by Anne Berest. 
Thank you for joining us. 
Three avid readers (Rebecca, Colleen, and Athena) host a podcast about being a reader to investigate their interactions with books: this includes a close look at books that people rave about, and we couldn’t even finish, and why we continue to follow writers when we have only liked their early books. It is also a place where we shine a light on the unseen or underappreciated books we fell in love with.
