Hey Readers!

Welcome to the

Literally Reading Logo
Podcast!

On this show, we’ll chat about the books that we’re literally reading right now and each week, we’ll crack the book open on a bookish topic. We hope to fill your ears... and TBRs… with new and backlist books.

We’ll always be honest about the books we like (and don’t!) and our descriptions will be spoiler-free. Thanks for joining us here where we’re literally reading all the time!

Ellie

Listener Extraordinaire

Ellie here! As a busy mom of four, reading is not only my favorite pastime, it’s also what keeps me sane. You can usually find me with headphones in, listening to my current read. I love well-written contemporary fiction, romcoms, thrillers, and engaging literary fiction. Reading is a way for me to see into someone else’s life and maybe a more socially acceptable way to be nosy.

My perfect reading day would be walking in sunny Southern California while listening to my newest memoir, browsing the shelves at my local indie, and then reading on the couch with my husband at night. I’ll let him read all the horror and I’ll read all the romcoms.

Traci

Total Reading Nerd

Hey Readers! I’m Traci and I live in Pasadena, California with my sweet husband (who does a good job looking interested when I babble about my current read) and my son, Jack (who is used to having quesadillas for dinner so I can finish my book)! My best reading gets done sitting by the pool, listening while folding laundry, or waiting in line at Disneyland (the only time Kindle reading is acceptable!).

I’ll read in any genre (but nonfiction… bleh), but especially literary mysteries, anything written by Amor Towles or J. Ryan Stradal, Regency-era classics, and Harry Potter (eight times and counting!).

@Abbywag

"A book lover’s treat! Listening to this podcast was the most fun I’ve had in ages. The hosts have created an inviting and cozy space in which to indulge my inner book nerd. Their discussions (no spoilers!) inspire myriad ideas for my TBR list and leave me in awe of their deep knowledge of novels, new and old, of all genres. Listening to Literally Reading is a truly a treat."
