  • New Fan! My new favorite podcast!

    I recently heard about this podcast on TikTok and thought I would give it a listen. I love When the Moon Hatched and was excited that you did a deep dive of it. I listened to the series and it was amazing. You answered so many questions I had and made me LOVE this book even more than I originally did. Thank you so much for what you do and I look forward to listening to all the deep dives into my favorite books.

  • Used to be 5 stars, but the ads are too much now

    Every episode starts with 3 minutes of ads, then 10 minutes in, does another 5 minutes? Way too much. I can’t even recommend this without having people complain to me.

  • I wanted to like it

    This podcast was recommended to me by a fellow book lover and I was really excited to hear theories about onyx storm. However, I could only make it about 40 minutes in before calling it quits because of ALL THE ADS it’s honestly ridiculous

  • Not my style

    You have to read the ENTIRE book before listening to ANY episode. And they post spoilers on their social media. Do not listen to them!
