This is a chaotic historical romance podcast hosted by confirmed spinsters: Caroline @salty_caroline_reads and Hannah @fringebookreviews. To be quite honest, they should not have been trusted with microphones. New episodes drop on Fridays and every other Tuesday. Hannah and Caroline are not responsible for any pants romanced off of your body and/or any addition to that pile of books just chilling by your bed.
[HANNAH] Are you troubled by not knowing what to read in the middle of the night? [CAROLINE] Do you experience feelings of dread while looking at your TBR list or NetGalley ratio? [HANNAH] Have you or any of your moots recently read a three-, two-, or one-star book? [CAROLINE] If the answer is yes, then don’t wait another minute. Pick up your phone and listen to the semi-professionals. [HANNAH, CAROLINE] Slumpbusters! [CAROLINE] Your improper and rambling co-hosts are on call every Friday to serve all your HistRom Slumpbusting needs. [HANNAH, CAROLINE] We're ready to influence you!
