Reading Under the Influence
We are best friends of 10 + years who love to read and discuss all things book related. What sets us aside from other book related podcasts is that we are very different in all aspects especially the genres we prefer to read. One reads thrillers while the other loves romance, one loves physical books while the other loves her kindle. Join us for book recommendations, honest reviews, and drink recipes to top it all off.
MEET YOUR HOSTS
Amber: I love dark twisty mystery/thriller books. I am a lover of physical books and have a huge collection. I work in Healthcare and when I’m not working you can find me cuddled up with my fur babies reading or on fun adventures around the world with my boyfriend of 3 years.
Genna: I love spicy romance , rom coms, and hockey player characters. I am an avid Kindle user, you’ll never catch me without it in my hand. I also work in Healthcare and when I’m not working you can find me outside reading with my fur baby Luka, watching sports, or working on my teaching degree.
