I love Amanda and Jenn. I love their recs. I love the way they read. They are a reader / librarian / bookseller’s dream!

I discovered SFF Yeah during the pandemic and listened to all of the past episodes. When I ran out of episodes to listen to and had to wait for more I decided to check out the other podcasts by Book Riot. I saw that Jenn Northington was a host on Get Booked and since I loved listening to her on...Read full review »

I love this podcast, it’s the only one I listen to. I’ve discovered so many great books this way that I never would’ve known about or tried. It completely changed my reading life for the better. I highly recommend this to all my bookish friends.

This show is great! Jenn and Amanda are really fun to listen to. They do a great job explaining books without giving too much away. Heck, even if I don’t need a book recommendation, it’s just fun to listen to what kinds of books and stories are out there! Highly recommend to anyone who loves...Read full review »

I want Book recommendations, yes. Political commentary, not so much.

A bit too much middle grade and YA

In the April 1 episode, one of your book reviews said the main character grew up in Puerto Rico, then moved to the US to Miami. Puerto Rico is the US, thus she moved to continental US.

I love all the BR podcasts but this is easily one of my favourite podcasts. I look forward to it every week and have had so many good recs from it. Never stop with the weather/food/pet chat!

Love the bookish part of the podcast but have gotten to the point I skip half or more of every episode due to political opinions and the constant identity groups being pushed. Sorry, but not worth the time any more.
Freebeefrisbee via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/17/20
This is one of my favorite book podcasts! The variety of books mentioned on the show can’t be found anywhere else and I’ve read so many amazing books recommended on this podcast. Amanda and Jenn are great hosts, and manage to explain just enough of the book to get me interested but don’t give...Read full review »

I’m always interested in the episode topics on this show, but every time I try to listen I can’t help but be distracted by the audio cutting out every time they finish a sentence or thought. Sounds like an audio editing issue. It’s a shame because I want to listen but can’t get past the annoyance...Read full review »

Amanda and Jenn are eminently entertaining and enjoyable. Kudos to their positive energy, camaraderie and diverse recommendations!
Goodbye Orchid, a novel via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/08/20
I listen to a lot of bookish podcasts. This one stands out because many of the recommendations are not the “usual suspects”, which I greatly appreciate as I am trying to diversify my reading. Jenn and Amanda are a pleasure to listen to and as I keep up to date with each new episode, I am also...Read full review »

I listen to this podcast every week. Love the hosts! They get right to the book talk and make wonderful, diverse recommendations.

This podcast is a MUST listen for anyone looking to find their next favorite book. Ive found so many amazing books through this podcast, both from the hosts and listener suggestions. If you love books, you should listen!
E. Whit via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/23/20
I binge listen to this podcast and have to frequently add to my good reads to keep up with how many great books they talk about. It’s thoroughly enjoyable, every episode 👌👌👌

Smart podcast that you need in your life! Thoughtful hosts with endless recommendations and good energy. Highly recommend

I absolutely love the diversity in book recs these ladies provide, and I find myself adding books every episode and looking forward to more recs 🤗❤️
KristynRene via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/12/20
I’ve arrived at a point where I am less inclined to pay heed to the recommendations given. It does not appear that books are put forward for being great, but rather instead because they checked the ‘appropriate’ boxes under GENDER, ETHNICITY, and SEXUAL PREFERENCE. I skip through most of the...Read full review »

I really like your recommendations but please stop giving soooo much detail about the book!
kcmari3 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/14/20
The hosts give great recommendations and I’ve added some amazing titles to my tbr because of them!
KH8004 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/10/20
This is my favorite book-related podcast. I love the charisma between Amanda and Jenn, and the diversity of titles they discuss!
Steph23414 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/06/20
Really awesome recommendations from all over the universe of stuff that’s available! I’m really enjoying listening to past episodes too, and finding other great authors!
Feathermar via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/29/20
This is probably my favorite show from the Book Riot suite of podcasts. I love Jenn and Amanda, their humor and wit. I also love the unique recommendations. I’ll never be able to read all the great books I’ve learned about here. ;)

I never miss an episode & love the interaction between the hosts.
Dicey2016 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/08/20
Love this podcast - every episode adds to my TBR pile. Their recommendations are varied and thoughtful - perfect show for book lovers
dinopine via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/05/20
Get Booked has gotten me to read and be interested in books I normally wouldn’t gravitate to, and it’s been awesome! Thank you for a great podcast!
deelovesbooks via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/13/20
My only complaint is that they recommend SO MANY good books and I cannot read fast enough! 😫
charikael via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/09/20
Jenn and Amanda are so delightful to listen to that, even though my TBR is a mile long, I still listen to them EVERY WEEK! They are charming, kind, funny, wonderful people who restore my faith in humanity. They also recommend great books! Because of them, I’ve discovered many amazing things and...Read full review »
MajesticBook via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/03/20
Amanda and Jenn are two of my favorite podcasters to listen to. The show is one of the few Bookstagram outgrowths that doesn’t completely suffer gatekeeping, publisher influence, and advertiser creepiness. The format invites readers to make requests that range from basic reluctant reader needs...Read full review »
Generic Reader via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/02/20
I only 3 starred this, but I persist in listening to every episode and I do get some really great book recommendations from this show. You can write in to the show to get personalized reading recommendations. I did this one time and my question did not make it on the show. I’m pretty sure it’s...Read full review »
cardamomsmellsgood via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/31/19
These ladies are awesome and I love their thoughtful and concise recommendations. A great podcast for people who really want to get to some fantastic book reviews and recommendations, and very little filler content. One of my biggest critiques of other podcasts is that they aren’t well-edited and...Read full review »
musicsnob via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/24/19
I absolutely love this podcast. I’ve gotten such good recommendations from them. However, I knocked off two stars because I cannot believe how bad the audio quality is. One mic is obviously lesser than the other and I’m constantly blasting my volume for one of the hosts and then lowering it for...Read full review »

Thanks to Get Booked, my TBR list has doubled. Even on the occasion my interests don’t align with requesters’, I still love hearing the hosts’ discussions. Get Booked is my favorite of all the Book Riot podcasts.
HaveAudiobookWillTravel via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/26/19
Simple concept, well executed. Tailored book recommendations based on readers questions. These women obviously love books and enjoy each others company and ideas. I love this podcast
helloitsme3241 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/15/19
I quite enjoy listening to Jenn and Amanda talk about books in the mornings as I get ready for my day. When I first began listening to this podcast I listened to a couple of the most recent episodes and enjoyed them so much that I went back and listened to all of their past ones, starting with...Read full review »

I see I’ve already reviewed but I want to add that I was the person who asked for the book about White Russians escaping when the Tsar fell. I loved your recommendations and had Lost Roses been out then I’m sure you would have named it. I’m just starting it now. Keep being awesome ladies!!! I...Read full review »
JillBo411 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/02/19
I can never forgive Amanda for recommending A Little Life, Lol, nobody should ever recommend sadness and depression, but honestly, I’ve read so much more just listening to them talk about books with such excitement. Amanda and Jenn are freakin awesome! I totally cosign all the other 5 star reviews.
Reglara79 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/22/19
This is easily my favourite book podcast out of all of them. I love listening to the answers for book recommendations and have added several titles to my TBR. The hosts are amazing and super knowledgeable about books. A great podcast!
BelindaNatureGirl via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/22/19
This is the first podcast I’ve listened to that made me go back and listen to them ALL. Such great recs, great dialogue and both Jenn and Amanda are great to listen to. Great podcast voices, lots of humor, and thoughtful suggestions. So glad it’s weekly!!!
Mamacita329 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/04/19
Making my way through back catalogue and found lots of great reads. Thanks for great podcast!

Great show with great hosts. Love their recommendations and the variety of books that they draw from.
sarah1987l via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/24/19
I am an avid reader. This podcast is so enjoyable I actually down load episodes and listen to them multiple times. Amanda and Jenn have such a good chemistry on these podcasts and are great at giving recommendations. They describe books so well, but never spoil. I have created my own TBR per Get...Read full review »

Amazing podcast! I would recommend this to anyone interested in books and looking for something to read. I had tried other podcasts about books and nothing was working out. I love this podcast because they recommend multiple books in each episode and give great descriptions/summaries without...Read full review »
knickknackpatty1302 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/13/18
I am amazed how many books these two ladies read. I think I read like 5 books a year. This podcast inspired me to read more.
incognito82 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/05/18
So much fun and so interesting! You get to hear about books from every possible genre and whether or not the books make it your personal TBR, it's fascinating to hear what other people are reading and why! The podcast is entertainment all on its own in that respect, and I've never had...Read full review »
JKS04 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/02/18
I’m always in need of new book podcasts to listen to, especially when I’m walking the dog first thing in the morning, or after a long day at work. As such, I don’t always want to be learning about the state of world affairs, but rather just listening to people be enthusiastic about something they...Read full review »
