“Looking for a cozy, intellectual, quietly whimsical and wonderfully creative podcast about books and a bookish lifestyle? Well her you go! It’s also lovely to listen to a sophisticated and friendly accent by the show host(s) which is most frequently Kate these days (although Laura is always sunny even when she is eschewing a book due to intensity that dabbles in darkness and/or pain).
The pod features a wide range of mostly fiction, some poetry, the rare appearance of a graphic novel, pointed nonfiction and sub-genres move around but most notably is the literary fiction is tasteful and expansive.
Bookstore owners, fellow readers, authors and other industry adjacent peoples appear on the podcast and Kate is a skillful and inspired interviewer. Listeners learn as she does and Kate is not shy to learn and offer that dynamic and rich experience to her listeners.
Her recent Booker prize episode is chef’s kiss! She reminds me of early Julia Child—Kate is THAT interesting and raises the bar for podcasts making them be educational by way of intellectual participation (no mansplaining).
USA listeners she reads and cites relevant articles derived from all the great States publications so give Kate some love and listen in.
I would love to see her expand her show to feature fellow podcast people further and Bookstagram—the community would love her should she connect furthermore. Networking people re-read this!
Admittedly, I have been influenced a little by Kate’s selections. I wish I was in Europe to meet at book club but the podcast offers one to Patrons via Patreon so if you get a holiday bonus and desire community and time enables a good linkup then join!
I look forward to seeing what Kate rolls out for 2024. She’s a professional both on and off the podcast so listeners keep busy between episodes or go back to old ones there’s always something to discover. Enjoy!”

“An excellent podcast. The hosts are engaging, informative and warm. I learn so much about books I have read and books I have yet to read. Highly recommended.”
