  • Great hosts and love the back and forth banter!

    Listen I really love the two hosts and I think that they are very passionate about the books that they’re reading and they aren’t gonna hold any punches, they’re going to tell you how they feel and what they think, they don’t just gush over all the popular books just because they’re popular.

    But with that being said, just know that they will probably trash your favorite book lol I wish that they did kind of a “bash the book sandwich” if you will. They start off where they say the book is good ... more

  • Immature and Boring

    I hate writing negative reviews, but this podcast was nothing what I thought it would be. I was excited to hear recommendations about books and discussions and whatnot. Instead, I made it through 45 minutes of an approximately 1.5 - 2 hour show and the word “like” was used every other word. Minimal discussion about books and the interview seemed more geared about TikTok and other social media things. I heard maybe two short references to books during this whole time. Overall, the girls sounded t... more

  • Like chatting books with your besties!!

    Let me start by saying Tatyana and Kearsten are amazing humans. More then that they put their heart and soul and time and energy into this podcast. They also don’t pull any punches and give it to you straight which can be uncomfortable if they are covering a book you love (ahem you know what book I’m talking about). If you want just a plot recap/summary this isn’t for you but if you want to feel like you’re talking about books to your best friends then I highly recommend this podcast!!

  • The ACOTAR Negativity

    I really wanted to like this and was excited to listen to a fun podcast that discussed ACOTAR. Obviously everyone’s opinion is allowed to be different and this is their podcast where the point is to express their opinion and debate. However, I came on here to listen about a book series I love and find joy from it and instead it was just so negative. I could pick out maybe 2 positive things that they said the whole time and I had to turn it off after feeling a little sad. Again, to each their own... more
