Reading Women releases new episodes every Wednesday. Each month features two episodes on the same theme—one highlighting a range of titles and one discussing two titles more in depth—and two author interviews with women writers whose work we’ve loved.

I love that this podcast highlights diverse voices and topics! I have been introduced to so many books I might not have heard about otherwise. Also, Kendra’s voice is so soothing and pleasant to listen to! So sad to hear the podcast is ending! 😭I’m glad I have the backlist of episodes to listen to whenever I miss you! Wishing the best to all of you Reading Women correspondents!
I look forward to the RW podcast every week. And I love it for it’s variety and great interviews with *women* authors. I love this year’s reading challenge too in the RW goodreads account. I recommend both to my bookclub and friends and family all the time!
Continually inspiring, enlightening, thoughtful, and enjoyable. Thanks for what you do for the reading and writing communities and women in general 💕
Reading Women features books from all over the world I would never hear of otherwise with great author interviews and terrific discussion. Highly recommend!

This is hands down my fave bookish podcast, Kendra and the team do a wonderful job sharing books and authors and adjacent news from all over the world
The new intro is great! I love the new song arrangement and theme statement! So excited to continue following along with you all in 2021!!
One of my favorite book podcasts! I love the discussions and interviews, and the contributors have made it even better!
I love The Reading Women as both people and a podcast! I especially love The Reading Women awards at the end of every year and The Reading Women challenge that I will be participating in in 2021!! Can’t wait to see what these lovely people do this next year!!
Great 100th episode and plans for 2021! I’m in!
Reading Women has enlightened me so much. The authors featured are some of the best putting out work right now. The hosts are top notch. A must listen.
Such a great podcast! I never miss an episode and I’ve gotten so many great book recommendations. Kendra does an amazing job interviewing and gathering a diverse & passionate group of women.
Kendra is just awesome! I wasn’t a huge reader but this podcast inspired me to read and explore different genres. A really great way to find established and emerging authors.
This isn't a great podcast for me. It tends to be too much about issues and not enough about books for my liking. Some presenters are a little too focused on their own personal situation and how that is reflected in the book being reviewed
I love that this podcast highlights diverse voices and topics! I have been introduced to so many books I might not have heard about otherwise. Also, Kendra’s voice is so soothing and pleasant to listen to!
