“Since it’s a Book Riot podcast I really wanted it to talk about sci fi fantasy books. I ended up being really annoyed with the hosts’ reviews mainly consisting of basically hey, I’ve heard of this book but didn’t actually read it ha ha not really into reading right now. Okay….”

“Just started listening, and I profess to skipping over conversation that isn't about the books sometimes. But the book discussion/ reviews are wonderful depcitions of the narrative and details about how the book reads that is compelling. I think the content warnings are great because it...”Read full review »

“Podcast is fine, but the hosts are a bit tryhard. For example, they recently gave a trigger warning for classism. For a book about a princess.”

“It’s affirming to listen to people who geek out about SF&F books, movies and tv shows as much as I do. Thanks to SSF Yeah, I have found some enjoyable reads such as the Murderbot series, River of Teeth and We Could Be Heroes. Thanks to the hosts, I can moved up books on my TBR shelf by...”Read full review »

“I have the same literary taste and politics as the two main hosts, and I have enjoyed many of the books that they’ve reviewed and recommended. However, even I can’t stand their oft-hypocritical, echo-chamber preaching. People like this fuel Trump-ism whether they know it or not. Still, I...”Read full review »

“I love every episode! Even when the main topic isn’t my jam, I love listening to the news discussions. I nearly always end up with books added to my tbr.
I started listening because I enjoy Jenn’s recs on Get Booked. She’s enough to listen on her own, but Sharifa is wonderful, too and they...”Read full review »

“SF/F is my jammiest jam, and I have added SO MANY books to my tbr list from this show! I can’t even pick a favorite episode. I love them all. Jenn and Sharifa have the best dialogue. I really love hearing their commentary in the news section and fangirling right along with them!”

“A nice, well-paced blend of sff news and book recommendations. Although over time I’ve heard some recommendations repeated, that’s not a bad thing because they’ve made my TBR ginormous. The only note I’d give is research names if you aren’t sure if the pronunciation. (Neil “Degrassi” Tyson? Come...”Read full review »

“I listened to a couple episodes but couldn't take it anymore. All these Book Riot podcasts seem very "inside baseball" in that if you're not in the publishing world you've likely never heard of half the stuff they're talking about and they don't bother to explain it,...”Read full review »

“Okay... I don't want to be terrible. But this podcast needs a lot of work. They need to prep more -- way too rambling, too much plot detail, too many times they sound like they are losing track of the point they are making. Lots of "um" and fillers while they fumble for the point. ...”Read full review »
