  • Mystery Podcast

    Previous version had a very good format, no spoilers, interesting details and a right sized time for the review, well done. A few minor technical issues but not a big deal. Glad to see a reboot of this topic and podcaster.

    New season after a break, keep it going! I get tips to check out new writers and the summaries are great by a writer and reviewer. That is a great combo to learn about mysteries.

  • Great way to find new authors

    This is a great way to find new authors. I like the format and length. You have a very pleasant voice. It’s distracting to have the music playing and you speaking at the same time, be more pleasant when speaking not have music or lower volume of music. I don’t think you need to review the first book in a series because often a later book is better written than the first.
