Kaytee and Mindy are handling this week while Meredith recovers from surgery. We are so glad to have Mindy step in during tough times!

As we get started, you'll hear our first advertisement on the podcast. We have always said we'd be extremely discerning about advertisers, so Book of the Month was a perfect match for us, since we are both loyal (paying) customers. We hope you'll give them a try and get your first book for just $9.99 when you use the code CURRENTLYREADING! If you're interested, please use our link so they know we sent you.

You'll hear a "bookish moment of the week" from each host: a bookish sticker from an online friend, and a "book dictionary" brag that occurred at a local bookstore.

Next, we discuss our current reads for the week. Every single book this week was a "turn" from the previous title discussed, so we are running the gamut.

For our deep dive this week, we are chatting about reading while sick. Mindy and Kaytee were both battling viruses this week of different kinds, so we talk about how illness effects our reading lives and the tips we have to keep reading while you're not feeling 100 percent.

Finally, this week, we are Pressing Books into Your Hands: we've got a brick of a biography and a collection of stories that will open your heart.

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!
