Kaytee and Meredith are so excited to get back into our discussion this week that we have a hard time keeping our bookish opinions to ourselves.

You\\u2019ll hear a \\u201cbookish moment of the week\\u201d from each of the hosts: getting sucked in by a book to the detriment of\\u2026. the rest of your life, and fun book mail deliveries.

Next, we discuss our current reads. We have some very seriously large opinions about our books this week. If you\\u2019ve ever wondered what it\\u2019s like for Meredith to get spicy, you\\u2019re in luck!

Our deep dive this week centers on the Currently Reading Challenge! If you\\u2019ve been wondering about some of our favorite classics for that second category on your challenge sheet, you are in luck! We\\u2019ve got 20 titles for you for this category alone!

As always, we finish up with A Book (yep, capitalized) that we\\u2019d like to press into every reader\\u2019s hands: two more classics are on our lists this week. They\\u2019re both lovely and SO vital to the reading cannon.

As per usual, 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
