What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Adriana Trigiani has organized the most low pressure book club for readers. She is an excellent hostess who asks insightful connections of the most interesting book creators. My one wish would be for consistent high quality audio equipment to be used. I have hearing challenges and the built in microphones on computers do not produce consistent or audible sound quality.

LA teachers233 · Apr 2026

I have learned something new and interesting from each of her podcasts. I appreciate how she is able to ask insightful questions and still infuse that great personality of hers.

Beth#29 · Mar 2026

Adriana does such a great job getting authors to talk about themselves as well as their books. I realize they are real people with many of the same struggles we have. Their characters show us ways to deal with those struggles.

Grammie Patti · Jan 2026

The warmth and wit that I find in Adriana Trigiani’s novels come through in her interviews with this marvelous collection of writers. These conversations reveal her knowledge and love of literature and people!
