In today's podcast I got the chance to sit down with Rachael also known as the Booklist Queen. She's a professional book reviewer that can read up to 20 books a month.

Her blog is dedicated to everything about books. If you're looking for recommendations you can check out her book reviews, if you're looking for inspiration you can try out one of her reading challenges. Basically, if you're a reader or want to get into reading, you should check out her blog.

From preferred reading formats to how Rachael makes time to read 200 books a year, we cover a number of different topics around reading. If you're looking to increase your montly book count, going through a reading slump or just want to start reading this podcast if for you.

As always, you'll be able to find all of today's show notes at galiway.blog.
