Mostly Middle Grade Books & Rambling

This podcast hasn’t been the same since Rebecca left. Liberty and Rebecca were the perfect pairing because Liberty chose some more niche and quirky reads / reads that were specific to her and not always listeners, and Rebecca tended to choose memoirs, nonfiction, and books that appealed to readers in a less niche way.

I know Liberty loves to read, but I feel like the podcast has turned in to her talking about how she loves super long books, fairytales, magical fiction, etc. And the other cast members who rotate in and out recommend soooooo so so many middle grade books. It just feels like I’m wasting my time now and it’s rare that I get any new recs from listening. I used to get probably and genuinely 75% or more of my reads from this podcast years ago, but again since Rebecca left it’s been a very different show. I’m just shy of the point of unfollowing and no longer listening, and that makes me genuinely sad.
