Season 5, Episode 41: Summer Reading + Book Hangovers
On this week’s episode of Currently Reading, Meredith and Kaytee are discussing:
Bookish Moments: summer reading guides and plane reading
Current Reads: all the great, interesting, and/or terrible stuff we’ve been reading lately
Deep Dive: we are chatting about the dreaded book hangover, the ways we deal with it, and what it means about our reading lives.
The Fountain: we visit our perfect fountain to make wishes about our reading lives
