I had been searching for so long for a book podcast that does deep dives into the books I’ve read recently and also introduces me to new book recommendations and this podcast does both! Their banter is so entertaining and I love hearing their very different perspectives. This podcast even motivated me to start my own neighborhood book club. 12/10 recommend! 🤩
I have found my people! I love that they read the same genre of books I read. Their recommendations also encourage me to step outside the box a little. My new fave podcast! Currently going back and listening to all of the old episodes to gather all of the good info.
I have been looking for a book podcast with my kind of people forever and FINALLY! After listening to just one podcast, I am hooked and I will be listening to the rest ASAP.
I’ve been enjoying this podcast and have actually tried several of the “obsessed” items mentioned in the show. I enjoy listening to the episodes on the way home from work I almost feel like I’m part of the conversation at times.
