Book Talk, etc.

A book recommendation podcast that's bound to grow your TBR!
Great podcast for real readers!

This podcast has added so much to my reading life, I’m appreciative! The talk is real, their feelings about books and authors is real, and there’s no pretense to these ladies opinions and I find myself returning over and over to this podcast for great bookish topics and recommendations.
Love it except…

I do really enjoy this podcast. I was sad when Rene left but I find Hannah to be a lovely addition. The only issue I have is how they stop the book talk to compliment each other! Every episode someone will finish a book recommendation and the other will over the top compliment them about how great they did summarizing the book. I find it so unnecessary and annoying. If they want to hype each other up great, but please cut that out of the episode.
Great info

Love this podcast!!!
Books or politics?

I loved this podcast but after the host I loved left it seems to have taken a turn. It’s become less about book talk and more about the hosts political views.
The epitome of boring

This podcast is about as exciting as clipping coupons. I have not been influenced once and have listened for roughly a year. I use the term listening loosely. This is the kind of podcast I have on when doing dishes I don’t mind leaving the room to change over the laundry while it’s playing. I’m thinking of replacing the sound with a couple of birds in the cage who chatter definitely more interesting than these two hosts. I’ve not been influenced once. And they mention a lot of books.
One of my favorites

I do like this podcast but I do think they probably need to consider changing their rating. They were once clean at one point but as of late there’s quite a lot of beeping to cover up their foul mouths pretty much every episode now. So perhaps they need to either clean up their language or change their rating.
I love you gals

Last time you got political and this week you’re cop bashing. This is no longer an enjoyable podcast, it’s a platform for you to push your own biases. First I just unsubscribed from Patreon so as not to monetarily support you but now I will unsubscribe from this podcast.
Way too much chatter!!!

With Rene, it used to be predominantly about books and I loved it. Now it’s chatter, and it’s even getting political. Book podcasts were the one place I thought I could get away from politics.
