Welcome to Libromania, a new podcast for the book-obsessed from the Close Reads Podcast Network. Each week David Kern will be chatting with authors, biographers, designers, collectors, critics and other people who help make book's so worthy of our attention.

Here in chapter 2, David goes off-book a bit and talks to film critic and novelist, Jeffrey Overstreet, about the year in movies. Jeffrey offers his ten favorite films of the year, which is capped by a few choices that might surprise most listeners.

Be sure to check out Jeffrey's film reviews (and other work) at lookingcloser.org.
