Easily my fav book podcast, bar none.
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟Katey + Abigail refreshing deep dives, discussion and literary analysis. Love the authentic flow of convo, feels like a cozy book club with girlfriends.
One of my favorite bookish podcasts! It’s so fun to listen to and they pick great books!
Not only do these two pick the most relevant books, but they discuss the books like I would with a friend. I feel like I’m part of their conversation when listening to their reviews. What sets this podcast apart from other book podcasts is their voice (not boring and stuffy!), their very relatable commentary, and their clear friendship. It’s so much fun, and I look forward to reading alongside them!
I love romance books and these two know all the best ones! Take notes as you listen.
Listening to their podcast, I already feel like I’m virtual friends with Katey and Abigail. They host this fun show about new release rom coms, and their taste (and hot takes) are right up my alley! Give them a listen, and I bet you’ll find you have a new favorite pod.
