It could use a little help
I am a mighty big fan of the horror genre, and I feel that the majority of the books recommended on here are mostly light murder mysteries. Not entirely a bad thing, but just wish the recommendations were more diverse, even if recommending older books. Like other reviewers, the excessive amounts of the words “uh”, “um”, and “like” is like nails on a chalkboard. It feels as if they are used mostly when trying to voice incomplete thoughts, but with show notes that shouldn’t be very frequent...unless they are coming to the table unprepared. Also, I feel there is too much personal chatter and media news, while actual recommendations taking a back seat. I am grateful for the few books I have added to my TBR due to this podcast, but I would recommend those few changes.
