- A pick me up podcast
Luke’s way of describing books is infectious. You can hear his smile sometimes the entire episode. I love the ones where he’s giddy about a book or even his own favorite tropes and he’s just so fun to listen to. Sometimes I’m smiling through the entire episode and laughing along with him. I do appreciate knowing the books he’s referencing so I can relate. And most of the time I absolutely can because I follow along with his favorites. This is definitely a feel good podcast for me. Thank you Luke... more

I have been watching your reading journey through Insta for a while and have just discovered your podcast. Thank you for your advocacy, enthusiastic reviews and your energy around reading for boys and men. It’s infectious and I look forward to hearing your views on different books. I work in an all boys school and am building a reading culture there. You back up everything I am working towards.
