Season 3, Episode 44: Middle Grade and Mysteries + Book Polygamy

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

Bookish Moments: regular reader kids and bookish friends lavishing love
Current Reads: mysteries abound, as does middle grade, plus some overlap between the two
Deep Dive: how many books do you read at once?
Book Presses: a book that shifted our perspective and a retelling of a Greek myth
