On this week’s episode of Currently Reading, Kaytee and Meredith are discussing:

• Bookish Moments: trips overseas and checking out home decor books

• Current Reads: all the great, interesting, and/or terrible stuff we’ve been reading lately

• Deep Dive: what is working for us in our reading lives

• The Fountain: we visit our perfect fountain to make wishes about our reading lives

As per usual, time-stamped show notes are below with references to every book and resource we mentioned in this episode. If you’d like to listen first and not spoil the surprise, don’t scroll down! 

We are now including transcripts of the episode (this link only works on the main site). The goal here is to increase accessibility for our fans!

If you’d prefer to shop on Amazon, you can still do so here through our main storefront. Anything you buy there (even your laundry detergent, if you recently got obsessed with switching up your laundry game) kicks a small amount back to us. Thanks for your support!*
