What a terrific discussion we had tonight with Lily Koppel about The Red Leather Diary. And as an added treat, Florence Wolfson, author of the original red leather diary that Lily discovered and started her on her quest, called in to answer our questions! That was amazing. Listen in now and a big thank you goes out to Lily, Florence and everyone who listened live and sent in questions. Be sure to visit Lily's website for more info about the book and to invite her to call in to your book group.





















































































































Yay for summer book reading! I'm excited - I'm even thinking of starting my very own book club.Kind of off-topic, but I signed up for this Netflix-of-books type thing called BookSwim and it's the best thing I've done in this darn recession. Curious, have you ever taken a stab at renting books?? Do you have thoughts on it?

Another excellent interview - very cool to listen to both Lily and Florence talk about The Red Leather Diary. "The original Tweeter" - fun blurb!

It was a great show last night. My Dad called shortly after Florence joinced the conversation, so I can't wait to go back and listen to the rest of the show.

I'm so glad you all enjoyed it, I felt like we had a celebrity on the line when Florence called in! Now I want multiple guests every time!
Andrea, I've never rented books, but would love to hear about your experience of it and how it works, and what you think of it!

Jennifer, I just had the chance to listen to the chat and it was absolutely awesome! It was great listening to Lily's personal feelings on finding the diary and getting it written. Wow, what a treat to have Florence call in! She was just amazing and she sounds so sweet. I think it's so great that this diary has brought her recognition and happiness at this time in her life. Thanks for a great show once again Jennifer!
