The best podcasts for Book Lovers

Who am I?

I am passionate about reading and books ever since a high school teacher told my mother I’d never be a good reader. From that moment on I have been. I love books, I love talking about books and I love listening to other people talk about books. I have a book club podcast Book Interrupted and am a book reviewer.

My Show

What is my podcast about and/or how does it relate to the playlist topic you chose?

My podcast is Book Interrupted and it’s a book club podcast. It relates to the topic because it’s all about books and connection that books create between people.

What is my podcast playlist about?

This podcast playlist is for any book lover that is looking for funny, light and informative book podcasts to enjoy between reading books. All the hosts in these podcasts are relatable, non-scripted people.

The podcasts I picked and why

1. Book Interrupted

Why this podcast?

It’s a book club podcast that doesn’t take it self too seriously. It’s funny and feels like you’re participating in a real book club.

Why this podcast?

I love that they just do books that they’ve been meaning to read. Which is often books I also have in my TBR pile. They sound like two friends just chit chatting about books. Very enjoyable.
