This is honestly so amazing! I’ve listened to other book podcasts and this has to be the winner! They stay on topic and are so open and don’t focus on promotions or stuff like that! Podcast is real and down to earth and say what we’re all thinking. I HIGHLY recommend

The Abby Jimenez episode of Lit Chicks was EVERYTHING. I’m obsessed with her books, so hearing her talk about her writing process, characters, and the inspiration behind her stories was such a treat. The conversation flowed so naturally, and I felt like I was hanging out with my bookish besties. Definitely one of my favorite episodes!

We miss you guys please come back ❤️❤️❤️

I love love love this show!!! I started with ACOTAR but I’m here for the long haul baby! Thank you ladies for being my book besties across the pond <3

This podcast is my new favorite thing 🤩 I have been trying to get a book club together with no success. So grateful I found you guys 🤍🤍

I love this podcast! The books they cover are interesting and I love the insight they provide. I find myself eager to read the books they discuss if I haven’t read them already.

I was in a bad car accident 1/20/23 and suffered a concussion and have struggled to read since then. I just started the Throne of Glass series and after reading the book I come hear to listen to your episode and it has been life changing to help my brain understand parts of the book and things I may have missed. I want to say thank you for helping me fall in love with reading again.

I found your podcast in a moment of SJM fandom end where I read everything and needed to consume more! I randomly searched on podcasts and listened to like 10 podcasts and I fell in love with your friendship, commentary and comfort level. Love you guys 🤍

I like reading with this “book club”. However, I wish the one host didn’t say “like” 100 times per episode. The other host really has a lot of insights - she is great.

I was looking for a new book podcast, and have listened to a few episodes. Will not continue. There is SO MUCH talking that has nothing to do with the book! As an example I’m listening to Drive by Kate Stewart, and I’d say maybe 25% of the chat is recapping the book. The rest is talking about their kids getting a drum kit, and going to concerts, and so on. I want to hear about the book!

Came to Apple just to leave a review. Love this podcast and you ladies! I especially love the SJM coverage - it’s nice to have “friends” to “talk to” about these books lol. PLEASE please please do Crescent City series! Also, a formal request for you gals to cover Outlander series as well.

You guys are so fun! Thanks for the great podcast!

I looove these ladies and the books they read!! Between their IG and these episodes my TBR list has grown ten fold. I’ve been able to get back into reading this year and I’m loving it! They’re consistently recommending books in my favorite genre which is perfect because I don’t have too much extra time to invest in books I won’t finish! Thank you guys for consistently introducing me to new favorites ❤️

It’s so nice to hear others thoughts on books! My friends don’t read the same genres as I do so I often have no one to talk to about books I read. I wish I had been up to date on Outlander when Lauren had her Instagram Lives!

Loved the space Lauren and Sheryl have created to talk about romance novels. I absolutely loved the podcast with Ivy Owens which spoke to her book but also about romance novels in general in our society. All while keeping it fun! Great job!

Let me begin by saying I love these ladies, especially Sheryl. She is magnificent, caring, tactful, and considerate in her responses on the IG page. However, there are moments I feel like Lauren’s opinions dominate. Sharing thoughts outside of what Lauren’s are seem to be a slippery slope, so the reviews in turn become a bit one-dimensional. Also, all of the book selections seem to be the same genre. I happen to like Verity, as it was very different from the standard, overly-hyped Hoover formula, yet it was evident that since it departed from Hoover’s typical “style,” it was trampled on in their review. If you enjoy rom-com-ish books with a bit of mystery peppered in, this podcast is for you! For those who enjoy other genres, even the occasional biography, you won’t feel completely at home with this podcast. It is for sure within their means to do whatever they want, but just wanted to let the readers know that the books they review are basically reiterations of the same types of books.

Well done! My SIL (Jillian) introduced me to the podcast. I have never enjoyed a podcast so much (and I’m a serial listener)! I feel like I’m just hanging with the girls, ya’ll have very similar tastes in books and opinions as myself. Breath of fresh air and currently looking to follow you on all the socials 🫶🏼

This podcast is a breath of fresh air. The two hosts have an amazing dynamic together and it’s fun to listen to their perspective on the books that I also love.

Just started the podcast. I love the banter and the sound quality.

I love hearing these ladies talk about books without passing judgment on them. They have a similar taste in books as I have, and it’s like chatting with my girlfriends on the porch about a book I just read.

Horrible.

Feels like I’m with my girlfriends chatting about our fav books (hello ACOTR) 🤍

Absolutely love you two! Day one Obsassenach and so happy you have gone on to other books also ❤️

I love Lauren! I have followed her a long time and look forward to her honesty and everyday life updates. She has renewed my love of reading. I finish one book and look for her recommendation for the next. I’m constantly checking to see if there is a new podcast!!

I have been following Lauren for years. I have always loved her down to earth content. Last year she got me really excited to start reading again. I have read over 75 books since I got my kindle. When she and Sheryl started litchicksread I immediately jumped on that band wagon.

Lauren and Sheryl are hilarious and make talking about books so fun! So pumped for this pod.

I’ve been a fan of these gals since obsassanachs started and have followed their reading journey since. So excited to listen on this new platform!
