Season 4, Episode 24: Reader, Know Thyself + Our Three Reading Themes

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

Bookish Moments: a giant fanfic and a kid’s rec
Current Reads: books that have very little in common with each other
Deep Dive: a listener-suggested topic, what are the three themes of your reading life?
Book Presses: productivity non-fiction and pregnancy-related non-ficiton
