Meredith and Kaytee are back in your earbuds for Episode 11, in which we take a fun little trip down our \\u201cbook-memory lanes\\u201d.

You\\u2019ll hear a \\u201cbookish moment of the week\\u201d from each of us: A sweet book gift from a friend, and a childhood milestone finally broached.

Then we dive into our currently reading lists with three (or more) books from each of us, lots of mysterious picks this week, and one title that we just can\\u2019t stop talking about.

Next, we take that memory trip and talk about the books that formed us as readers. The memories we have of our childhood reading, the ones that shaped us as teens, and how they turned us into the readers we are today. So many backlist gems in this list!

As always, we finish up with A Book (yep, capitalized) that we\\u2019d like to put into every reader\\u2019s hands. This week\\u2019s picks include a YA pick that\\u2019s being made into a Netflix movie and a non-fiction classic that is perfect for everyone on your Christmas list.

Time-stamped show notes are below with references to every book and resource we mentioned in this episode. If you\\u2019d like to listen first and not spoil the surprise, don\\u2019t scroll down!\\xa0
