This is the first episode of the 'rebooted' version of the BUDDY'S BOOK BUDDIES show I did last year and also of the original GOTTA READ show I did a few years ago with my wonderful wife Lisa.
In this episode, I talk a little about my plans for the show and also about the 2025 READING CHALLENGE I'm doing this year.
Future episodes will feature interviews with authors about their books, book discussions with other book lovers, book reviews, and other reading-related things.
In other words, THE GOTTA READ SHOW is going to feature a lot of talking about books!
If you love books and you 'gotta read,' I hope you'll join me and follow my show. Happy reading to you!
P.S. - In this episode, I mentioned the books HOLMES, MARPLE & POE and HOLMES IS MISSING but neglected to mention who wrote them. Whoops! The books are by James Pattersn and Brian Sitts.
