“I have “A Farewell to Arms” sitting on my bookshelf right now and listening to Kyrin talk about it clarified my decision as to whether I should actually pick it up. These reviews are great. The Aussie accent certainly doesn’t hurt!”

“I love reading. But there are only so many hours in the day, and I can't read everything that has ever been published. MM is doing a great job of reviewing the books which are actually worth reading.”Read full review »

“First and foremost, Kyrin and Juan have a knack for making book reviews exciting and fun, something I would’ve never thought to be so entertaining.
As a light reader, it’s hard to come across a good book or recommendation when the options are endless. However, the way this is put together takes...”Read full review »

“This is a great show because I don’t have to actually read the book they are talking about because they give a in-depth exploration of the book while weaving current events into the mix. I learn a lot while laughing a lot more with them. I will recommend this to anyone that loves books and...”Read full review »

“I enjoy listening to Kyrin or Juan’s take on a book that I’ve read myself —or learning about different books that I wouldn’t have otherwise known about! Juan’s review of superhuman by Dave Asprey was a recent favourite of mine – also looking forward to the future book review of Jordan Peterson 12...”Read full review »

“If you like to read book reviews, be assured that you've never read book reviews like those presented by Juan and Kyrin at Mere Mortals Book Reviews. They not be professional critics, but that's exactly what makes their reviews so interesting. The two guys have a style all of their own,...”Read full review »

“First off, one of the things I really enjoyed about listening to this review was that it was long enough to give me a real sense of what the book is about and whether I'd like it.
While also at the same time not going on so long as to feel that the review was dragging or that all the good...”Read full review »

“Mere Mortals book reviews are enjoyable, clear and interesting. I love the way they go through all the book, part by part talking about certain details, and then there’s the general analysis of the whole book itself. As a person who loves reading, I really like reviews that are NOT summaries, but...”Read full review »

“Kyrin and Juan choose books on topics that I have read about before on a limited scale. What they do when they hit a topic I’m more curious about is that I can now decide to go deeper on a particular subject and if that particular book fits what I seek. Great resource when there are so many...”Read full review »

“Books are great, but bad books are not so great. I like listening to this particular podcast because you can a great summary of the highs and lows of a heap of books on my reading list and get to essentially try before you buy. I also like comparing notes with my own thoughts on a pre-read book...”Read full review »

“Firstly, the lads review some great books. Secondly, they review them in an entertaining manner. Thirdly, their reviews are comprehensive, thoughtful, and practical, not only speaking on the synopsis, but also highlighting key observations and pragmatic takeaways.”
