So glad I found y’all! Love the content!!! Listen, I read all these books and have no one to discuss them with. Listening to this podcast makes me feel like I’m talking books with my girlfriends. Keep it up ladies!!

Wow. Thank you for an amazing conversation about this important book.

I love these ladies. I am constantly laughing out loud with them. I’ve listened to every ep and sometimes when I need a “comfort listen” I’ll go back and pick a random episode. But they aren’t ALL comedy, not sure they even try to be funny they just are!!! I love the book discussion and they...Read full review »

This is the best book podcast. It feels like you’re talking about books with friends. Alexis and Kari are the perfect mix of warm, insightful, empathetic, and hilarious when providing commentary on books. They read so many different genres and some of my favorite episodes are about books I’ve...Read full review »

I LOVE this podcast! The mix of personality between you two & the obviously deep friendship really make the discussions feel like a safe space.

I love listening to them & hearing their thoughts on their books. They chose amazing books & have great discussions about them. My only complaint is that their older episodes aren’t available.

One of the best book podcasts out there. Funny, insightful, original - it’s got it all!

Hey there, just want to say how glad I am that I have found your podcast. As a new listener I’m having so much fun as I listen to your back catalog of podcasts.

After finding Lit Society, it’s hard for me to want to listen to any other podcast! Each episode is equal parts informative and entertaining. I always get a good laugh, but also gain new perspective on the reading. Alexis and Kari are the perfect hosts! LOVE the podcast and thank you guys for all...Read full review »

These ladies flesh out books with detail, humor and authenticity. The enjoyment they experience discussing the books is apparent and I love it! Currently reorganizing my reading plans so I can listen to more episodes!

I just finished reading Wuthering Heights and I was searching for content discussing Emily Bronte’s classic. I found them to be hilarious and delightful. Often times reading the can be isolating and daunting but listening to this podcast feels like I’m discussing the book with friends. This...Read full review »

I love their commentary on books, themes, and life in general. They are insightful, witty, and just wildly funny. I send their episodes to my reader friends all the time to get more people to listen.
Izzyjmiller via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/24/22
I have been listening to Lit Society for months, and it such a delight. Listening to the two fabulous hosts discuss books in all different kinds of genres is like sitting in on a really good book club. I love listening to episodes on long car rides and made it through two today! Thanks for this...Read full review »

I found your podcast when I did a search on Wallace Stegner and have been hooked ever since. I love listening to different points of view for books I’ve read and on new books I add to my list. Anyone who can spin humor into a Jane Eyre review is pure genius. Keep on reading. -Miriam-

I was so excited for the third season to start! The ladies never disappoint. It’s very refreshing to hear them discuss the books and the themes. I feel like I’m in a room with friends when I’m listening. I especially love the side comments because most of the time I’m thinking the same thing! And...Read full review »

QueenB.Baby via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/31/22
I get so excited when a book I have just read is covered by Alexis and Kari on Lit Society because my reading experience is always so enhanced by their conversations. Although I am a generation older, I also enjoy their perspectives. Highly recommended!

I’ve been an avid reader since I was child, I used to walk down the hallways of my high school with my nose in a book but as an adult I’ve had less time to “read” and when I do it’s usually me listening to a random audiobook. You ladies have renewed my love for literature and I am so grateful. I...Read full review »

This podcast is amazing. It has something for everyone. Looking for a fresh take on a dusty old classic? Find it here. Spoiler-free review of the latest best seller? They’ve got that too. Totally eclectic—I never know what’s coming next. The best part of this podcast is the hosts. I feel like I...Read full review »

This podcast…. has me dying laughing all the time! The one time you talked about “the broad and spacious road vs the narrow road” took me out. Lol I love listening to this about books I’ve read/movies I’ve seen and to get an idea of what books I should be reading. Plus a lot of these episodes I...Read full review »
Arika82 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/30/21
Was my title old timey? Sure. But it perfectly reflects my feelings for this podcast. These women feel like friends I’m hanging out with on a cozy couch with my legs curled up under me. Maybe I’m drinking tea, maybe coffee, maybe a cocktail. I’m so so happy I found this podcast.
Katiethibby via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/15/21
These ladies are fierce!!! They are smart, suppportive and crack me up during their podcasts!!! I listen to quite a few podcasts and they are my favorites. They have a theme at the beginning of the show and then dive right into introducing each person to the authors and even play out some scenes!...Read full review »
Nereida Claudio via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/28/21
I found this podcast recently after searching to see if there were any out there that discussed Anxious People by Frederick Backman, and I could not have found a better one. I have listened to a few other episodes since then and have learned a lot and literally laughed out loud. 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
apresley01 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/06/21
I’ve been listening to this podcast for a little over 7 months now and in that time I’ve gone through all their released episodes, some of them more than once, and I’ve never not found myself cracking up or being washed over in silence as I listened to their insightful takes. Recently, they...Read full review »

Over the past year, I’ve started reading more but have no one in my circle to talk to about books with. I’ve been looking for a while for a podcast to help fill this void and stumbled across Lit Society after reverse searching some titles and fell in love! Alexis & Kari handle difficult...Read full review »

I stumbled across your podcast by accident and I’m in love! I love listening to you two....have me in stitches a lot on my 1 1/2 hour drive home from work.

Last year was extremely difficult for all of us, but one bright spot was listening to this podcast really enjoyed it. Made me smile every time - laughter always.
Loral69 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/25/21
These ladies. Not enough words. Their humor and love for reading shines through in every episode. I love their rapport with each other and reverence for literature and discussion of often difficult topics. It’s the way I want book club to be! Let’s get lit!!

First, YASS to the Kari representation (my name is Kari and I feel welcome here) Also I am so glad to have found a podcast for black women like myself to discuss the impact of great literature!

I’ve tried a few book podcasts and this is by far the best one! I love the theme discussion and deep dive in each episode. The episodes feel like they just fly by. Def recommend :)

The chemistry between Kari and Alexis is amazing! Instantly one of my favorite podcasts!
Beartoes84 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/06/21
I'd never been one for podcasts...but with the pandemic I wanted to go out of my comfort zone of only listening to music when on my daily walk. Bingo...I saw Lit Society on a best podcast list and decided to give it a try. That was in April...and I've been hooked ever since! I love the...Read full review »

Very gentle, very witty discussion of some classic novels. Really benefited my well-being when I would have otherwise been listening to the news!

Thanks for putting yourselves into your work. Listening to Lit Society is like sitting at the kitchen table with a fresh cup of coffee, cookies warm from the oven, and good friends.

I love your podcast so much. You make me laugh and I just love to listen to your hilarious exchanges.

I discovered this podcast by accident. My friend & I were reading P&P and needed some further discussion. I binged 5 episodes in a day & then read And Then There Were None just so I could listen to the episode. Calling the Bennet ladies chicken heads sealed the deal 🤣. This really is...Read full review »

Made my day! Fantastic hosts, lots of laughs (and rarely I like pods when the hosts laughing). They are so awesome, warm and feels like you're hanging out with friends. Informative, to the point, well produced. The best on Lit! Thank you! Well done! Keep up the good work!Read full review »
