Currently Reading Season 6, Episode 4: Nasal Adventures + Two Tropes Diverge in a Wood
On this week's episode of Currently Reading, Kaytee and Roxanna are discussing:
-
Bookish Moments: new library cards and new projects
-
Current Reads: so many books we convinced each other to read
-
Deep Dive: tropes that we usually like, but might diverge into something we hate
-
The Fountain: we visit our perfect fountain to make wishes about our reading lives
