Episode notes

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

Bookish Moments: matching reading and values and a library mood boost
Current Reads: murderful goodness, plus visits to previous beloved authors
Deep Dive: when you read a bunch of one type of book, do they start to dilute in ratings?
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!
