Please enjoy the premiere episode of the new Ferndale Library Podcast: A Little Too Quiet.
We're chatting with Josh Malerman, author of Bird Box. We spoke about the recent Netflix adaptation of his horror novel, as well as his five nominations for the Bram Stoker Award. Malerman is also in a rock band, The High Strung, that famously toured to dozens of Michigan public libraries. Oh, and the big news is that Malerman also shared a bit about the upcoming Bird Box sequel, Malorie, which will be available in May.
This Podcast was made possible by the Friends of the Ferndale Library. Theme music by John Duffy (of Pato Y Pato).

The podcast’s name, “A Little Too Quiet,” is a nod to the fact that libraries everywhere have evolved beyond the longstanding perception that they are silent institutions meant only for peaceful reading where librarians sternly shush anyone speaking above hushed tones. That’s just not the case anymore, and the new podcast aims to demonstrate the ways in which the Ferndale Library and libraries everywhere have evolved into 21st-century community centers where, yes, occasional loudness is more than accepted.

Despite its title, this podcast will feature hosts and interview subjects speaking at very audible levels. We're excited to start up a full season of podcast episodes brought to you by the Friends of the Ferndale Library, produced in house at the Ferndale Area District Library.
