On this week’s episode of Currently Reading, Kaytee and Meredith are discussing:
Bookish Moments: homeschool book reports and an embarrassment of galleys
Current Reads: three books from each of us to fill up your TBRs (or sometimes not)
Deep Dive: finding and heeding trigger warnings
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!
