Where I Left Off

About Where I Left Off

Welcome to Where I Left Off, a bookish podcast. I'm your host, Kristen Bahls. Join me to hear my recommendations of a mix of romance, mystery, thriller, and young adult novels. With a mix of author interviews, bookish guests, and book recs, my show is perfect for anyone looking for new friends in the book space. My recs are a mix of indie + trad books, and I'm always up for a trip of the library to find new to me authors. Join me biweekly for new episodes.
