Kaytee has a special guest co-host joining her this week, and I can\\u2019t wait to share her with you. You\\u2019ve heard me mention \\u201cmy Heather\\u201d many times on the podcast, and today she\\u2019s recording with me to bring you a very special episode.

Continuing Important announcement: we have a great discount code to share with you from The Bookshelf Thomasville! Now through June 30th, you can get anything on their website for 10% off using the code CURRENTLYREADING (wow!!!) This would be a great time to pick up a Shelf Subscription for yourself or others!

You\\u2019ll hear a \\u201cbookish moment of the week\\u201d from each of us: a trip to a favorite indie bookstore and library cards for very excited kiddos.

Next, we discuss our current reads for the week. Heather prepared like a boss and brings you a perfect audiobook listen no matter who you are road tripping with this summer. Kaytee has some non-fiction and a (perhaps overly?) hyped sequel to discuss.

For our deep dive this week, I\\u2019m talking to Heather about her reading life, including some of the things that you listeners have been wondering about our (M&K\\u2019s reading life) in relation to motherhood, and finding time to read with kids around.

As always, we finish up with A Book (yep, capitalized) that we\\u2019d like to press into every reader\\u2019s hands. We\\u2019ve got a children\\u2019s classic that should be read by readers of every age and a memoir that will make you cry and laugh so hard you may pee yourself.

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
