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 Meredith discuss their bookish moments of the week, and then tell you about three current reads each. For this week's episode, our current reads span the years from 1963 to 2026, ranging from murdery goodness to literary fiction to non-fiction about our bodies. For our Deep Dive, we discuss what it means to us to go into a book with no prior knowledge whatsoever. 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 tells us about stocking our summer TBRs, and Meredith enters "fragrance corner" but makes it bookish. 00:00 Welcome to Currently Reading 01:34 Bookish Moments of the Week 2:25 Funlenry Bath Lamp https://a.co/d/0eAYfrXE 06:38 Current Reads 06:46 Missing by E.A.
