Welcome back! It’s Season Three of our podcast book group: Reading with Libraries! We hope you have enjoyed all of our short Book Bites, and now we are looking forward to settling in to read more books with you! This week we are discussing cooking and food books.
Check out our full shownotes page here, with beverage recipes and links to the books we share.
In our book group we have fun talking about books, and provide useful information for library people doing Reader’s Advisory work. There are so many books out there that it’s tough to be an expert on all of them. So we pick a new genre each week to chat about and hopefully provide you with some insight into what may be an unfamiliar genre!
Who is joining us this week? We are pleased to welcome Guest Host Connie Laing, from the Great River Library System.
There are so many great cookbooks out there! This is a great time to be interested in food, and in food-related books. Of course, every celebrity has a cookbook – and some of them are even good! And there are lots of cookbooks by people who have really studied their food area, and spent a lot of time working to bring up books that not only give good information about the food you can prepare, but also look good. And there are also all kinds of other food books that are about food, preparing food, cooking food, and improving the way food gets from its starting point to our tables.
So this week we are going to talk about a variety of books you may want to check out that will help you hone your cooking skills, help you to feel more confident in the kitchen, or just make you happy as you eat store-bought snacks while reading. No shame at all! Enjoying food is our goal, and as always want you to enjoy the books you are reading too.
