The Best Strangers in the World

As a fan of both NPR (he hosts NPR's “All Things Considered”) and Pink Martini (he sings/tours with the band), Ari Shapiro's new book is a must for me. You don't have to be too familiar with his work and involvement with covering news stories but it certainly helps. It's an enjoyable book that looks into Ari as a person as well as going in depth at some of the stories he's covered as well as some fun facts about him. From reading this, he seems to be a genuine and caring soul and I totally recommend it for anyone interested in reading about some good stories, some that will make your eyes watery and some that will make you grin.
