Season 4, Episode 32: Swallowing a Tapeworm + Mood Reading Vs. Planned Reading
On this week’s episode of Currently Reading, Kaytee and Meredith are discussing:
Bookish Moments: reading in the wrong format and new library discoveries
Current Reads: books we blasted through and ones that surprised us on multiple levels
Deep Dive: different types of readers - mood reading versus planned reading
Book Presses: surprising books that get into your head
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!
New: we are now including transcripts of the episode (this link only works on the main site). These are generated by AI, so they may not be perfectly accurate, but we want to increase accessibility for our fans!

If you’d prefer to shop on Amazon, you can still do so here through our main storefront. Anything you buy there (even your dishwasher detergent!) kicks a small amount back to us.
