Season 4, Episode 39: Soldiering On + Our Five Rules for Reading

56 min • 16 maj 2022

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

  • Bookish Moments: finishing up school and reading when the wheels fall off

  • Current Reads: all kinds of books for you today, readers

  • Deep Dive: our five (personal) rules for reading

  • Book Presses: falling in love with the octopus and a creepy twins

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! 

New: we are now including transcripts of the episode (this link only works on the main site). These are generated by AI, so they may not be perfectly accurate, but we want 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!*
