Mere Mortals Book Reviews

Hey I'm Kyrin and I review books of all genres/styles but with an emphasis on those that have stood the test of time (i.e., not recent releases). Join me as I cover the basic details before diving into the themes, ideas and learnings we can take away from the fascinating realm of literature. Weekly live episode on Thurs 10am AEST (Wed/Thurs Midnight UTC+0) plus bonus episodes from my cohost Juan every now and then.

Why Can People With Similar Tastes Have Differing Opinions On The Same Book?


We had a lot of people sending in messages (because I did a thing) and I also realised that I'm done with philosophy for a while.

In September 2022 we covered 4 books on this channel (but I also threw in a cheeky small one just for this recap). I just noticed that it was a pretty diverse crowd with an Englishman-cum-Australian, French Algerian, American and a fanatic Japanese. That's a good bunch.

I hope you have a fantastic day wherever you are in the world. Kyrin out!
