“I love the idea of this podcast and I do take inspiration from it for what to read and I really enjoy the majority. However, sometimes the podcast gets really sidetracked and often one of the presenters (Lucy) starts talking about something which doesn’t end up being relevant and it can’t be tied...”Read full review »

“Before I heard about Banging Book Club, I never really thought about podcasts. Now I’m addicted. They give an insight to books that I may have read, but not fully understood, in an entertaining and friendly way. Think the rights to BBC should be taken by them and rebranded to Banging Book Club...”Read full review »

“Listen everyone I’ve listened to ALL THE EPISODES of this podcast and I’ve read about two books. Not because I don’t want to read them but because they’re hard to get at my local bookshop. Anyway...if listening to all the eps even though I don’t read the books is not proof of how good this pod is...”Read full review »
