Gayle Shanks

It's time for the latest conversation in The Show's series, Page Turner.

Gayle Shanks is co-founder of Changing Hands Bookstore. She spoke with The Show about some of her latest favorite reads — though they’re not necessarily the kinds of books you read, but rather, listen to.

Shanks has a list of great audio books, and she told The Show what makes an audio book listenable.
