The New York Times just came out with its list of the 10 best books of 2015. They were some of our favorites, too. Over the last year, Diane sat down and talked to several of the selected authors. Check out the interviews here:

• Journalist, Author And MacArthur Fellow Ta-Nehisi Coates On “Between The World And Me”
• Andrea Wulf: “The Invention Of Nature: Alexander Von Humboldt’s New World”
• Helen Macdonald: “H is for Hawk”
• Sven Beckert: “The Empire of Cotton”
• For our latest Readers’ Review, Diane and her guests discussed “My Brilliant Friend,” the first book in the series of novels by Elena Ferrante that wrapped up this year with “The Story of the Lost Child.”

And for some of our recent reads, see Diane’s Bookshelf for December and November.

Enjoy!
