Simply a book review podcast. We read the books, then we talk about them. Each review is in two parts: a spoiler-free summary and review, and then a spoiler-heavy in-depth discussion and review. Logo designed by Justin Miller @justinmiller.design

Pretty great podcast. You’d get 7 stars, but Michael is constantly adding books I recommend to his alleged TBR and apparently there they stay until the end of time. 5 stars will have to do until he starts working through my list so I have people to talk to about the books I love. Since you just did a Books To Read episode, the following are my demands. Is a review the best place to post this? Nope. But my New Year’s resolution is to bring chaotic energy whenever and wherever possible, so here we go. Fantasy? Kinda? Emotional, Character-Driven Fantasy? Under the Whispering Door by TJ Klune Dystopian/Survival/Horror/Women-Focused: The Grace Year by Kim Liggett. One of my absolute favorite books. Horror: The Hollow Places and/or The Twisted Ones by T. Kingfisher. Really anything by her. Honorable mention: Winterset Hollow by Jonathan Edward Durham World-Building Fantasy: City of Brass (trilogy) by S.A. Chakraborty Historical Fiction/Adventure: What the River Knows by Isabel Ibañez Mythology/Retellings: another T. Kingfisher, The Raven and the Reindeer. Honorable mention: The Witch’s Heart by Genevieve Gornichec Non-Mythological Retelling: Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia Storytelling: The Girls I’ve Been by Tess Sharpe Sci-Fi: Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. An absolute classic. Old-school dystopian sci-fi. Feminism/Historical fiction: The Awakening by Kate Chopin. Arguably the first piece of feminist literature and one that helped create the feminist movement in the US. Historical Fantasy: Spellbreaker (trilogy, but only books 1 and 2 are currently out) by Charlie N. Holmburg Mystery: The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton Autobiographical: Born a Crime by Trevor Noah Let me know when you’re all finished and I’ll start a new list for you. 😜
Incredible

Absolutely incredible book podcast. Very informative and fun listen.
Content fine, hosts questionable

I would enjoy this podcast if it wasn’t for them criticizing the man the whole time. Good grief, can he do nothing right in your eyes? I feel bad for the guy. I’m assuming the main female voice is his wife? Either way she’s rude as crap to him!
Excellent
