Ep 67: Just the right book at just the right time
from What Should I Read Next? · host Anne Bogel
Today’s guest, Eli Sykes, is a food scientist who describes his job as “getting to eat snacks all day,” so it’s safe to say Eli is living the dream. We’ve had a lot of English majors on the show, but this episode looks into what it’s like to be married to an English major, because, you guessed it—Eli’s wife is one. Anne and eli discuss how a teacher sparked the reading flame in his heart (and exactly what book fanned it), a certain unnamed author who gets a lot of love around here, and how he “just wants more Mr. Collins in his reading life.” Click over to the podcast website for the full list of titles discussed in this episode, and leave us a comment to let us know what YOU think Eli should read next!
