A must-listen, add to your podcast library right now!

I’ve really enjoyed this podcast, not only for all the great book and book-adjacent news, but the hosts are also entertaining and fun, yet not afraid to share personal experiences and even a touch of shade (with plenty of context y’all and always clean)! I especially love the generous weekly deep dives into the main topics, where I have learned a ton and gotten so so many book recommendations (TBRs) and more. I highly recommend to seasoned book lovers, those just starting their reading journeys and those who want to get back into it after letting a little dust collect on the book jackets. Get your listen on, then get your read on!
