Yes!!

I love this podcast! The reviews are very well thought out and the books they discuss are varied and interesting. Every time I listen I add to my TBR. One of my favorite parts of the show is when they discuss things (not books) they are loving at the moment like tea or a lamp. I look forward to more!

Love this show!

Great honest recommendations. I always appreciate the no spoiler reviews and the openness around why a book may not be for everyone.
