Ms. Ford is enthusiastic about literature and makes some interesting points, but she speaks with an infinite number of micro pauses that makes listening unenjoyable. I recommend voice lessons or something similar if she wants to succeed in the lecture and podcast world. She also inserts her own feelings and opinions into her critiques, making her sound foolish and even juvenile.
Absolutely loved the lecture on vigil by George Saunders. The points made were so resident, especially with the audiobook narration style being very distracting and single note themes being somewhat less than expected from this brilliant and soulful author. Kimberly's critique made me feel sane.
This is currently my favorite podcast! I’ve been picking books to read based on episodes available and it’s added a lot to my enjoyment of reading.
It’s the podcast I ever listened to.She adds all of her own politics into her retelling of the story.Believe what you want but kill the story with your bias it comes off stupid and self serving.
Just when I think I have have a good understanding of a text Kimberly reminds me there is so much more to uncover! I learn something new with every podcast and have such a deeper understanding of some amazing novels! Love this podcast!
