“At first I selected about 6 or 8 of the podcasts, choosing just books I knew and had read. After listening to all those discussions, I decided to get a second helping, mostly trying out reviews of books I know about but havent read. I like to listen to the group when I'm doing busywork in the office at home, and I learn good stuff along the way. Like other reviewers noted, there is one female panelist who interrupts a lot and tries to dominate the conversation, but she's not on every panel, so don't be scared away by her. It's a conversational program, not too cerebral, but good enough to make you want to go back and read some books again that you havent thought about for a long time. Their review of Obama's Audacity of Hope was quite a time-capsule because it was recorded in late 2007, before the nomination or the election, and they had good insights into the shortcomings of some candidates and a feel for the eventual outcome. I think it takes a fair amount of work to pull off an hour discussion without losing focus or the audience's interest, and they do it well. If you're a book person, I think you'll enjoy it.”Read full review »

“The hosts of this podcast discuss like they all have PhDs in literature. Unfortunately, they are not. Somehow, they have picked up the terms academics use but fail to use them properly. Their lack of real knowledge about the books they discuss truly show. They should either have used a format...”Read full review »
