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

• Bookish Moments: reading peace for mama and a bookish husband dilemma

• Current Reads: a few of these ones have been all over Bookstagram, and I guarantee there’s at least one you’ve never heard of

• Deep Dive: books that are perfect for the men in your life

• Book Presses: a non-fiction, self-help book and a magical school that is can’t miss

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!
