“What is a classically homeschooling mom supposed to do to grow herself? Read, think deeply, read, talk to others. CiRCE helps me do this. I listen to podcasts while grocery shopping and working in the kitchen; my favorite is Close Reads. These folks keep me reading and growning as a person.”

“The content on this podcast is fantastic. On the Close Reads episodes in particular, I could do with a lot less of the hosts' chasing rabbits and giggling. It gets distracting and grating, especially the pitch and volume.
The Flannery series was especially enjoyable.”Read full review »
