I (continue to) enjoy this podcast very much
I’m a longtime listener and am genuinely shocked by the aggressive negative comments about the host. This show has always seemed to me to be a labor of love by the editors and critics of the Book Review. It was fun when Sam Tanenhouse was host. It was surprisingly emotional and nerdy (in the best sense of the word) with Pamela Paul handling things. And now, I find Gilbert Cruz to be someone in tune with popular culture and crafting the show to appeal to a younger and wider audience. A very smart move for the podcast. I enjoy what he’s doing and the guests seem to be enjoying it too!

More reviews of The Book Review
I especially love the interviews with the reviewers, but the author interviews are good, too. It is great to hear an audio update of the bestsellers. Not too keen on the new "what the hosts are reading" segment.Read full review »

If you love books or are interested in the business of the book industry, you need to listen to this podcast. It is a must listen for me each week. Keep up the fantastic work.

Updating comments posted in May 2013, I find Pamela Paul much easier to listen to than I did initially, and have come to enjoy the podcast nearly as much as I did with the previous host.
