Meredith and Kaytee are happy to be recording again, and can\\u2019t believe we are already up to Episode 37!
We have a few important announcements right at the top of the show, one of which requires your help, listeners! Send us your Ask Us Anything questions via email, Direct Message, or as a comment on show notes, and we\\u2019ll feature them in a future episode!
You\\u2019ll hear a \\u201cbookish moment of the week\\u201d from each of us: each of them this week centers on reading with the kiddos.
Next, we discuss our current reads for the week. We have an eclectic mix of titles from middle grade to adult, fiction and non-, humor and serious. A bit of everything!
For our deep dive this week, we are chatting about the fifth category in our 2019 Reading Challenge: a book pressed into your hands by a librarian, bookseller, or podcaster. And we\\u2019ve got a trove of resources for you if you\\u2019re stuck on this one!
As always, we finish up with A Book (yep, capitalized) that we\\u2019d like to press into every reader\\u2019s hands. This week has us pressing favorites that we\\u2019ve loved for a long time but were out of sight/out of mind until someone brought them back to our attention.
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
