Trailer: Ranch Girl Reads Podcast

Welcome to the Ranch Girl Reads podcast! Do you want to find books that are relatable and exciting to you as a ranch gal––But find that so many books are either full of unrealistic romances with scenes that would never happen on the ranch, or they’re action packed adventures that just happen to be set in the west but don’t actually capture what real life is like? Me too. We shouldn’t have to settle for books that don’t capture what real life is like––that aren’t relatable to us. That’s why I am committed to scouring the shelves and sorting through the books to find the ones that we can nod along with. This podcast is for cow-gals and country living enthusiasts alike. Each month we will dive into a western––whether contemporary or historical, adult or juvenile, fiction or non-fiction––creating a whole back list of books you share with your ranch friends. (Even better, share this podcast with them!) We’re going to discuss the most gripping aspects, what the author excelled at, any criticism, plus I’ll share a small quote from each book. So subscribe to this podcast and invite your friends along so we can all find ourselves in good company as we enjoy a book that inspires us to get horseback.
