About this episode
Kaytee and Meredith are back on track with another episode, recorded just a day after the last one. You'll never guess it though! Important announcement this week: we have a great discount code to share with you from The Bookshelf Thomasville! Now through June 30th, you can get anything on their website for 10% off using the code CURRENTLYREADING (wow!!!) This would be a great time to pick up a Shelf Subscription for yourself or others! You'll hear a "bookish moment of the week" from each of us: a re-read experience of a favorite novel and bookish unpacking wins. Next, we discuss our current reads for the week. Quite a few non-fiction titles again this week, as well as some readalikes and great books for your kiddos. For our deep dive this week, we are getting a little deeper into the deepness and sharing about times that a book saved our lives. These stories are a bit vulnerable, a bit emotional, and a lot bookish. As always, we finish up with A Book (yep, capitalized) that we'd like to press into every reader's hands. This week we've got two historical fiction novels: one centering on the plague and one in the back of beyond of Australia. As per usual, time-stamped show notes are below with references to every book and resource we mentioned in this episode.
