The Jolly Reader
MariaThis may not be an audiobook, but it is a whimsical podcast where I recap and react to young adult murder mystery books, one unhinged chapter at a time. I break books down chapter by chapter, full of spoilers, bad jokes, and big opinions. I also chat with authors and share bookish chaos on social media.

Apple Podcasts5YourgurlfreyfreyUnited Statesa year ago - One of my favorite podcasts
I first found your podcast on Spotify and fell in love with it after listening to your episodes about A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder. I love to listen to them while I study. I decided to see if you were also on Apple Podcasts. I’m currently listening to The Girl in The Picture. I find that you explain everything in a very good and informative way.
