Today, Meredith and Kaytee have a special guest, Roxanna Kassam-Kara. The three of us are discussing:

• Bookish Moments: the sweetest bookish moment ever, reading tees, and choosing a new book from your TBR

• Current Reads: each host is sharing two books they've read recently and some of them have us gushing uncontrollably.

• Deep Dive: Roxanna's reading life and her "achiever" tendencies

• Book Presses: two books you need in your life right now and one series starter that needed to be on the Press list.

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!
