- Love it
I’ve recently turned to reading more than I ever have in my life, and this podcast is such a fun addition to that. Listening in makes me feel like I’m a part of a reading club, where I can learn about things like genres vs. gateways, hear book recommendations, and listen to a couple friends/sisters chat about their love of reading. It’s easy to listen to and follow along!

United States2 years ago - Love this Podcast!
I recently talked with Elizabeth about a book I was hate-reading (I liked the first book in the series so much that even though I was hating the second book I felt obligated to keep reading it). I turned to Elizabeth for permission, I think, to quit reading it, and I needed to be absolved of my sin. I loved the episode in joy finishing books so much, because the dialogue was so smart, but also because it helped me see that reading books I am not into is keeping me from making time for the ones I... more
Apple Podcasts5DanaAndStuartUnited States2 years ago - Delightful
I’m so exhausted listening to the scourge of news podcasts and thankfully All Books Aloud is filling my time void with insightful and entertaining topics. Martha and Elizabeth are a delight!

Enjoyed this one! I listened to it outside (rather than reading it, haha) and almost felt as though I could chime in. I did mentally, remembering reading that when you are looking at the printed page and read it out loud you get more out of it. That is sort of a combination of reading a book and listening to a podcast. 😁As you said though, it can depend on the person as to what has the most substance and benefit for them.
