Kaytee and Meredith are sharing a special guest with you this week, our dear friend and podcast pal, Sarah Dickinson of Sarah\\u2019s Bookshelves and Sarah\\u2019s Bookshelves Live.
You\\u2019ll hear a \\u201cbookish moment of the week\\u201d from each of us: a sanity saver behind the scenes, meeting a (kid\\u2019s) favorite author, and new reading acronyms.
Next, we discuss our current reads for the week. We\\u2019re each sharing two reads this week and we\\u2019re all over the place with sequels and weird books, and amazing books, and STRONG opinions!
We\\u2019re skipping slow but steady so we have more time to chat with Sarah. Stay tuned for an update on that next week.
For our deep dive this week, we are picking Sarah\\u2019s brain about what it\\u2019s like to almost always be reading ahead of the charts. How she tracks her reading and whether she has goals for her yearly reading. It\\u2019s a great conversation with lots of food for thought.
Finally, this week, we are Pressing Books into Your Hands. We\\u2019ve got a non-fiction pick that will tear your heart out, an oldie but a goodie, and a WWII fiction book one of us believes is \\u201cbest in class.\\u201d
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*Please note that all book titles linked above are Amazon affiliate links.
