Season 5, Episode 16: Mind-Blowing Books + Finding Your Nonfiction Fit
On this week’s episode of Currently Reading, Kaytee and Meredith are discussing:
Bookish Moments: snow day reading + scheduled reading time
Current Reads: books that blew us away
Deep Dive: finding your nonfiction fit
The Fountain: we visit our perfect fountain to make wishes about our reading lives
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!
We are now including transcripts of the episode (this link only works on the main site). The goal here is to increase accessibility for our fans!
