Reading Stephen King in 4th Grade (Changes in Reading Tastes)

In this episode, the Distracted Librarians reflect on the ways their reading tastes and habits have changed - alongside the endless evolutions in technology, work schedules, and life stages.

We have better access to stories in all kinds of formats: from physical books and ebooks to video games and concept albums. So what formats and stories captivate us now, and how do they compare to the readers we used to be? And do we still think our moms are cool?

(Spoiler alert: Our moms are still really cool.)
