À propos de cet audio

Bibliophage: Noun, One who devours books, a book worm, an avid reader. Every good writer is probably a better reader. This is the podcast that proves it. New York Times bestselling author Gwenna Laithland is living out every avid reader’s dream. Forcing her friend to listen to her rave about her latest literary obsession. With co-host Tori Phantom, there's interviews, discussions, fan-kidding, and more. It's like an adult book report. You'll see. Er, hear. You'll hear. Just listen.Gwenna Laithland Art

  • Stacey McEwan: Why? Magic. And Also I Said So
    Sep 16 2025
    Bestselling author of Forbidden Alchemy, Stacey McEwan joins Bibliophage to talk about spruce trees, winged cuddling (she cheated), and describe how very little she knows about mining despite writing a book that heavily revolves around mining. What tropes are Stacey's favorites? What books inspired her? What did she find after riding an elevator that might very well have killed her and was it with the $50 and dodgy lift? (Spoiler: It was a book.) To get titles Stacey recommended, please consider shopping our Bookshop.org Shop to support Stacey, Bibliophage, and independent bookstores. https://bookshop.org/lists/stacey-mcewan-s-mentions Don't forget to pre-order Gwenna's new book, Thinky Thoughts: https://static.macmillan.com/static/smp/thinky-thoughts-9781250390028/ Learn more about your ad choices.

    Sep 2 2025
    Ever slept for days? How thirsty were you when you woke up? And why does middle of the night water taste so dang good? On this episode of Bibliophage, Tori Phantom (author to be) gets to discuss their favorite books. From wall flowering to how good things hurt to the life-altering consumption of Andrea Gibson poetry, we discuss whether happy endings are realistic or if their surreality is the whole point.

  • Chapter 4: No Knifing Until AFTER Dinner
    Aug 19 2025
    Why are butter knives so dang useless? They aren't sharp enough to cut anything and they aren't even that good at spreading butter. How did we end up with an *almost* pointless (literally and figuratively) weapon on the dinner table? Bee Wilson knows. (Mostly the answer is...men.) In her book Consider the Fork, she explains the origins of the butter knife, addresses why French cooking is the way it is, and explores the ways our culture is shaped by our kitchens. Not just the food that's made in them, but what the food is made with, the tools and technology of feeding ourselves. This book is one of Gwenna's favorites for a lot of reasons. She doesn't have any fancy awards to give but she gives some anyway. (There's even medals, y'all.) Tori and Gwenna also take a bit of time to discuss reading formats, veiny things, pasta water, narrative non-fiction, and how Tori is running out of Wood books. NEW!
