This week Toronto's favourite literary voyeur, Julie Wilson, relaunches her Seen Reading site, giving her very entertaining habit of spying on readers a whole new look. The biggest new feature is a podcast for every entry—lit geeks can listen to Julie while on transit, sitting beside someone who’s reading on transit, while listening to Julie talk about someone who’s reading on transit. As Julie herself said to Torontoist, "Very cyclical, don’t ya think? Plus, for anyone who has ever wondered what I sound like, or just plain likes to be read to, this is for you!" And who doesn't like to be read to?

Full listings after the fold.
