  • A good start to my day !

    I enjoy listening to this podcast early in the morning before my day starts.

    I sit on my couch with my dog curled up by my side drinking my morning coffee. This makes me feel so relaxed and I feel like I am learning something.

    Thank you

  • Lovely podcast for classic book enthusiasts!

    These are comfortable classic novels read in digestible podcast segments of one or two chapters at a time. She brings a beautiful reading voice and thought provoking commentary designed to draw us into the book and think about the author’s context and life lessons readers gained in the past and how the story feels though today’s lens.

    Just discovered this show and I’m loving it. David Copperfield has been great. I’m planning on going back and listening to Frankenstein while I wait between shows.
