The Just the Right Book with Roxanne Coady podcast is an absolute gem for book lovers. As I embarked on my cycling journey across the country, this podcast became my companion during those long, hot and boring stretches. Roxanne's voice and the diverse range of guests kept me entertained and engaged, making those miles a little bit easier. This podcast has been a constant source of inspiration and enjoyment throughout my journey.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is its varied format. I particularly love the shorts format where Roxanne dives into different topics related to books and literature. These shorter episodes provide quick bursts of insightful information that are perfect for when I'm on the go. On the other hand, the in-depth author interviews are a true delight. Roxanne's thoughtful and probing questions bring out the best in her guests, giving listeners an intimate look into their writing process and inspirations.
Another great aspect of this podcast is its focus on fiction. As a self-proclaimed "mature reader," I appreciate that Just the Right Book covers a wide range of fiction genres that may have slipped under my radar. Roxanne's recommendations and discussions with authors have introduced me to some truly remarkable books that I might not have discovered otherwise.
While it's difficult to find any flaws in this wonderful podcast, if there was one drawback, it would be that sometimes episodes can feel too short. The conversations are so engaging that you just want them to keep going! However, this is more of a testament to how enjoyable the podcast is rather than a criticism.
In conclusion, Just the Right Book with Roxanne Coady is one of the best podcasts out there for book lovers like myself. The combination of insightful interviews, varied formats, and informative content make it a must-listen for anyone who enjoys reading or wants to discover new books. Whether you're cycling across the country or simply looking for your next great read, this podcast is sure to keep you entertained and inspired.

After getting a master's degree in clinical psychology, Dasha Kiper became the live-in caregiver for a Holocaust survivor with Alzheimer's disease. For a year, she endured the emotional strain of looking after a person whose condition disrupts the rules of time, order, and continuity. Inspired by her own experience and her work counseling caregivers in the subsequent decade, Kiper offers an entirely new way to understand the symbiotic relationship between patients and those tending to them.
