PBS Books began in 2014, in Detroit, MI. In January 2024, they launched the PBS Books Readers Club, which is a digital-first readers club which normally picks one book per month.
With hosts such as Heather-Marie Montilla, Lauren Smith, Princess Weekes and Fred Nahhat, the PBS Books Readers Club has a channel which airs on YouTube, Facebook and the PBS App where they discuss their book of the month, and often have interviews with the author.
Here is a list of all of the PBS Books Reader Club Picks since it started in January 2024:
