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

• Bookish Moments: pet conspiracy against Meredith + airport friendships

• Current Reads: A whole slew of books that might be hard to listen to us talk about for various reasons

• Deep Dive: the goodies to buy for the bookworm that doesn’t need books

• 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!

*Please note that all book titles linked below are Bookshop affiliate links. Your cost is the same, but a small portion of your purchase will come back to us to help offset the costs of the show. 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!*
