Want to know what kind of reader you are? TAKE OUR QUIZ: https://www.currentlyreadingpodcast.com/quiz In this episode of Currently Reading, Kaytee and Mary discuss their bookish moments of the week, and then tell you about three current reads each. For this week's episode, our current reads bring beloved authors and new to us reads, with some spicy opinions. For our Deep Dive, we discuss reasons why we wouldn't rate a book we read, or why we WOULD share a book with a low rating. We'll always end with our Before We Go segment, where we shout out a Bookish Friend of the week or talk about a specific small piece of our reading lives that we want to share with you. Today, Kaytee shouts out a bookish friend who is looking for writing compatriots and Mary brings something she is curious about. 0:00 Welcome to Currently Reading 0:49 Bookish Moments of the Week 6:12 Current Reads 6:34 Hekate by Nikita Gill (Mary) https://bookshop.org/a/79394/9780316596763 11:22 Henry Tudor Must Die by Jillian Laine (Kaytee) https://bookshop.org/a/79394/9798217189717 16:42 The Infinite Sadness of Small Appliances by Glenn Dixon (Mary) https://bookshop.org/a/79394/9781668097267 27:02 Saving Jemima by Julie…
