Funny and insightful. These ladies truly love books like me and it comes through.

Love these book discussions. An absolute gem for both casual readers and bookworms - just the right balance of context and analysis with genuine reactions and fun topics! And Neha and Shruti have pointed me towards some great new books! Highly recommend tuning in.

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a reader in possession of a love for literature must be in want of a most agreeable podcast. Such a delight I have found in *The Novel Tea*, whereupon each episode, hosted with wit and wisdom by the esteemed Neha and Shruti, renders discourse as invigorating as the first cup of tea upon a fine morning. With the care of a well-penned novel, these ladies dissect each chosen work with an attention to detail most commendable. Their insights, ever thoughtful and refined, transport the listener into the very essence of the text, weaving together themes, characters, and historical contexts with a finesse that would surely render even the most fastidious scholar satisfied. Indeed, their method of lingering upon a single work, rather than flitting from one recommendation to another, is a practice most becoming, and one which I daresay should be more widely adopted. Thus, I bestow upon *The Novel Tea* my highest recommendation. To those who seek a podcast that is equal parts enlightening and entertaining, I entreat you—waste not a moment more, but press play forthwith. You shall not be disappointed. TLDR: love these guys, and love this podcast :)

Such a phenomenal podcast!!! Love to hear the symphony of both Shruti and Neha’s voices as they dive deep into various books discussing prominent themes and plot elements. Especially have loved the unique focus to each season! Very creative and thought provoking!

Love this podcast! Most book podcasts out there simply give an overwhelming number of book recommendations, but The Novel Tea actually goes deeper and slower by tackling one book at a time, really helping me appreciate each book. The hosts have helped me understand books from different angles that I never considered, and Neha and Shruti have such engaging chemistry!

This show is so underrated! Haven’t seen that many people talking about it but as someone who’s not a huge reader this is a great way to learn about new books. Highly recommend!

I may be a bit biased but I listen to a lot of podcasts and this one is perfect if you’re looking for a chill time to discuss with friends about a book you’ve read or are curious about.

These girls have a great rhythm and are so poised and thoughtful in their conversations. Love hearing their opinions and analysis on books I’ve read - definitely encouraging me to read more!! Can’t wait for future episodes

The insights and the commentary of this duo is very interesting and I love the way they both compliment each other so well in narrating their thoughts .

Can't wait to hear more from them!
