Season 3, Episode 9: The Actually Current Reads + Bookish Fear of Missing Out

Today, Meredith and Kaytee are discussing:

  • Bookish Moments: Homeschool reading presentations and Meredith’s new side episode

  • Current Reads: the current reads that we are actually currently reading, not a selective agenda of books

  • Deep Dive: Bookish FOMO. What are you afraid of missing out on when it comes to books?

  • Book Presses: the book I’d press on Meredith’s new mini show, and an author that she changed her mind about

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!
