“This was my favorite show until the hosts started a Kickstarter for a series of books. That Kickstarter was so successful that they instantly did a second one and only recapped the books that they had written before the podcast suddenly stopped. The books all went up in Kindle Unlimited which was...”Read full review »

“My favorite new listen, which keeps me giggling into my pillow and falling asleep with a smile on my face. Sexy, silly, and charming beyond words, it’s converted me into a lover of all things bonkers. And, you know, clarified a few…ahem…kinks in my nature. Long live bonkers!”

“A must-listen for out-there romance readers! I have so many new books in my TBR, and even when I don’t want to read the book myself, I have SO MUCH FUN listening to the giggle filled episodes. I laugh (literally out loud) on my commute home, and delight in these “out of the box” books....”Read full review »

“My favorite podcast. Each episode is it’s own little universe of goodness - you never know what tangents the hosts will explore as they laugh, curse, and recap their way through books. They did Iron and Magic from Ilona Andrews and I almost died. From joy.”

“Jenny and Melody are so so much fun to listen to, and I’ve learned that if Melody likes a book, I probably will too! It’s so nice to hear people who are also moms of young kids being so unashamed about what they read.”

“I love this podcast, it’s like aural serotonin. The hosts and their guests are fabulous and it never fails to make me laugh out loud. The only downside is I now have a TBR list that’s growing by the week! Do yourselves a favour and give this a listen, you won’t regret it xxxxx”

“Every week I laugh out loud until I cry! Every week I add more books to my TBR pile. Every week my definition of what a bonkers romance is is broadened. This podcast will definitely brighten your day, and maybe, give you permission to go a bit bananas. Give it a try - you won’t be disappointed.”
