Lisa's Book Club

Hi! I’m Lisa Donovan and I’m the co-host of Billy & Lisa in the Morning on KISS 108 FM.  I started Lisa’s Book Club because I wasn’t reading as much as I wanted and as an excuse to bring our listeners together in a fun way... over books! I feature authors that have a connection to New England. Literary powerhouses including Elin Hilderbrand, Ben Mezrich, Mel Robbins, Lisa Genova and Caroline Kepnes have shared their stories with me as they open up about their writing process, guilty pleasures and so much more.  I’ve created this podcast as an extension of the book club. Lisa’s Book Club is free to join at www.kiss.com/lisa’s book club.
