Books that Box
What's the book that really knocked you out? In each episode, Karen Oviatt, English teacher and general story enthusiast, asks, "What book had a significant impact on you?" Guests talk about how a particular book really "packed a punch" for them and changed the way they see the world, themselves, and sometimes, how it changed the course of their lives. If you love to talk about books, are looking for new titles to add to your list, or have ever asked the question, "Why should I read this book?", this may be the podcast for you.
