Season 4, Episode 11: Recording Together + Lending Books to Friends and Family

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

  • Bookish Moments: being together in person!

  • Current Reads: Books in the zeitgeist and one that’s perfect for October

  • Deep Dive: are we precious about lending books out to others? do we have rules and regulations?

  • Book Presses: books from the keeper shelf
