Welcome back into the studio with your hosts of Books, Beach, & Beyond, Elin Hilderbrand and Tim Ehrenberg, for an incredible introductory episode of Season 2. The episode is a quick catch-up with Elin and Tim… where they traveled this winter and what they’ve recently been reading and recommending. The two then dive into Swan Song, Elin’s final Nantucket novel publishing June 11th, and discuss its plot and characters, the Nantucket Special Edition from Nantucket Book Partners, and nostalgic summer traditions. Conversation segues into the audio book world and the episode concludes with special guest Erin Bennett, the award-winning and dynamic audio book narrator of 22 of Elin’s novels.
