Tune in to All Sides Weekend Books, aired on Ohio NPR member station WOSU where I recommend great books to read. This includes books that don't get enough media attention, the good stories readers struggle to find. You can stream the live show online, sign up for the podcast, or listen from the archives at WOSU. All Sides Weekend Books airs the third Friday every month with occasional exceptions.
