Fun chats with authors

These podcasts are really fun and interesting. We get to hear about lots of different books and contemporary topics: from cocktails, to current events, to TikTok videos and more.

I have been following Lindsey Pogue and Lindsey Fairleigh for a while now after reading their co-authored series, The Ending, and additional books of theirs. It is great to be able to send through questions in Social Media threads and hear more about their worlds, their characters, their way of working and that of other authors. And get different book recommendations as well!

With regards to the rating, I am only pulling one star because it is not all of the episodes that interest me, as there is a wide array of authors and genres. But for the ones that I do like it would be a 5 star rating. It is good, though, that there are different authors and genres, because there is always something for everyone, not just focusing on the hosts' own genres for instance.

Careful though, make sure to be up to date with latest releases as there are spoilers in there. I have not been caught out yet though :)

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
