Good, but…

I like the content and length of this podcast. I’m having a difficult time understanding the host unfortunately. So I had to stop listening as I spent most of my time rewinding to try and understand what she was saying.

BreeHill ,

Fantastic

The Ableist reviews are atrocious! What to Read Next is a fantastic, quick, well thought out podcast for readers. Not only are we getting amazing chats with the writers writing the books we love but they come to the show with book recommendations. If you follow the podcast and follow Laura online, she’s very passionate about reading and helping readers find what to pick up next. She is a total Go-To amidst the huge world of book influencers.

No more bullying! ,

Audio quality??

Unable to understand the narrator for most of her dialogue.
