Book Club with Julia & Victoria

Book Club With Julia and Victoria, the podcast for book friends, released more than 200 episodes from 2019-2025. Read our good-bye letter.

If you just finished a book and HAVE to talk about it with someone, if you’re a casual reader looking for book recs, or if you’re the type of deep thinker who has formative memories of their high school English teacher, you’re in the right place.

We believe a good book can come from anywhere, so we read classics and recent releases, bestsellers and little-known gems. But ultimately, this podcast is for the books we just can’t shut up about.

Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and wherever else you find podcasts.

Meet the Hosts

Hi, we’re Julia and Victoria, two former roommates and friends since high school who only use their Literature degrees to spark interesting conversation at parties. That is, if you define a party as two people sitting on a couch after 4 p.m.
