I love this podcast, most especially for the enthusiasm, sincerity, smarts and passion Meredith and Kaytee bring to the format. I have always loved books, but these “real” hosts have deepened my commitment to daily reading- both for learning and pleasure. Thank you!!

This is by far my favorite book podcast. I’ve been listening for many years and appreciate all the time and energy Meredith and Kaytee put into this podcast. I love being a Patreon supporter as well!! Great job this season!! Can’t wait for next season to start!!

Currently Reading got me back into reading after a several year slump, and I’m so thankful for it! So much of my reading life has been defined by Currently Reading, from what I’ve learned about myself as a reader to the sense of community I’ve gained through it. Meredith and Kaytee are talented and professional podcasters. They are clearly genuine in their love for reading/sharing that love and their care for this corner of the internet they’ve created. And the dynamic between the two of them is some of the best I’ve found in a podcast — not obnoxious or forced but easy and comfortable and palatable in the best of ways. And did I mention — NO ADS! :)

Every Monday morning, one of the things that helps get me out of bed is that I know there is a new Currently Reading episode waiting for me. I love the format and content of this show, and I usually add several books to my TBR each week. I recommend this to anyone who loves reading and wants to hear more about books
