Description

The Morbidly Curious Book Club® is an 18+ non-fiction book club diving into the darke,r macabre parts of your library, with a passion for learning more about what may be too niche for your family gatherings. What started in 2021 as a dream quickly became a reality, and as of mid-2024, we have over 17,000 global members worldwide with localized chapters sprouting up around the world.

The podcast started in 2024 as a way to give the members a little bit more by chatting with the authors themselves about their books. There are also bonus episodes where I chat with the book's subjects or updates regarding the book's topics, and 'archive' episodes where I chat with authors from previous book club picks.

Join the book club today at https://www.morbidlycuriousbookclub.com/

Thank you for being a part of this weird, incredible book club. Enjoy the podcast!
