Podcast Episode 126 of Sarah's Bookshelves Live

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

• Bookish Moments: travel reading and two great bookish podcast episodes

• Current Reads: buzzy books, sci-fi, and plenty of murder

• Deep Dive: book covers that enhanced our reading experience

• 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!
