Podcasting Books and Libraries: We Are YA

You probably know that we run a couple of podcasts here:

So, yeah – we are big fans of podcasts! They can be such a good way to share ideas with your community.

Each week we share a podcast about books and/or libraries, so you can join us in expanding podcast community and admiring the work others are doing to share cool info!

I read a lot of YA and there are some really fantastic YA book podcasts out there. A new one I’m really enjoying is We Are YA from Penguin Teen. So far they’ve had a great variety of YA authors, including Laurie Halse Anderson, Renée Ahdieh, and Gabby Rivera. The conversations are illuminating and funny and at the end of each episode, the author shares a book recommendation as well as someone they enjoy following on social media. I definitely recommend this one! 😊

From Penguin Teen: “YA books are longer than 280 characters. Conversations about YA should be too. Welcome to the We Are YA podcast! Host Anna Borges will be talking all things YA with the amazing authors that make up the modern YA community. “
