The Literary Report
Cozy up, commute to work, or do whatever you were doing before you found this show! I’m Maddie Moore, your host of this podcast all about books (kinda). Let’s have all the conversations about LITERALLY anything that has to do with reading. Yes, we talk about books and authors. But of course there will be episodes dedicated solely to movies like “Clueless”, “Anyone But You”, and all the other novel/play adaptations - because we don’t have to read Shakespeare to enjoy his stories. Join me every Thursday for your choice of either a long haul episode or a shorter, bite-sized show!

Let's talk about Rebecca Ross's duology, Letters of Enchantment! I just finished reading Ruthless Vows and wowie. Let's talk about it!
This is the beginning of quite a journey... We get to talk about my favorite book series of all time, like ever. I am so excited to discuss everything about Harry Potter in this mini-series (probably will be a max-series considering just how much information is out there on Harry Potter). We dive into the first chapter of book 1, and discuss the background and the "why" of the world of Harry Potter!

I took inspiration from the YouTube series "73 Questions with..." by Vogue and decided to interview myself... but with BOOK-related questions! These are such fun questions to ask yourself for creativity, to ask SOs and friends when you want to bond, and are great icebreakers!

DISCLAIMER:
I have marked this episode as “explicit” due to the nature of the content. While I don’t graphically discuss anything explicit, I do talk about the nature of banned books, many of which are claimed to be “sexually explicit”. I also discuss the topic of sex education. Again - I will not be explicitly speaking about anything. It’s just the aforementioned topics that are mentioned.
To maintain clarity with the platforms ...

For every Book Report episode, there will be a shorter, bite-sized version to give you a similar, but less time-consuming view into the book!
Babel by R. F. Kuang was my favorite read of 2023 and this episode explains why.
Welcome to the first Book Report episode! Head over to episode 4 to experience the shorter version of today's show. We discuss the magic system of this book, a brief explanation of the plot of the book, and my thoughts and review of the INCREDIBLE R. F. Kuang (in my opinion, one of the most educated, accomplished, and brilliant Gen-Z/Millennial authors I've read to date - she has all my respect).
