Today, Kaytee and Meredith are discussing:

• Bookish Moments: seasonal reading vibes and buddy reads during quarantine

• Current Reads: bookish serendipity books and books from repeat authors (that we’ve read before)

• Deep Dive: how to respond to the “I don’t have time to read” comments

• Book Presses: one of few authors that gets a second book on the press list and a contemporary WWII classic. Ha!

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!
