  • A Reader’s Dream

    I truly cannot get enough of this show. After the devastating emptiness of finishing my favorite books and desperately seeking to find content that gave me that same feeling, I found these two ladies. The perfect mix of analysis, humor, and feeling like I’m hanging out with my best friends. I’m a literary analysis nerd and this podcast hits the spot. Warning: this podcast will ruin books for you, in the best way!!

  • Like having book besties on speed dial

    I seriously love these two. I laugh every single episode and learn SO much about how to look at writing through a critical lens. It’s really enhanced the way I read. Amy and Jac have incredible insight and I leave each episode saying “Wooow, I totally missed that!”. Listening to this show is like having book besties on speed dial and really is the cure for book hangovers. Thank you both for what you do! I love being a listener. ❤️

  • Love it

    Love yall deeply but it’s actually almost unlistenable to hear yall call him “kale.” it’s in the back of the book, it’s pronounced “Kay-all” I.e. like the word chaos but with an L on the end. Do you pronounce “chaos” as “case”? His name isn’t kale. Almost enough to make me not listen 😭

  • Smart Fangirling

    If I’m not listening to an audiobook, I’m listening to my imaginary besties talk about my favorite books. Jac and Amy combine genuine literary analysis with laugh-out-loud commentary on fantasy romance. As English grads and writers, they dig into character development and deeper themes without being too serious- I’m desperately waiting for them to tackle all of SJM’s work (TOG👑). They’re the perfect mix of smart analysis and unashamed book fangirling.
