I, Kaytee, realize that the comments I made about JK Rowling were very personal. I would probably phrase them differently now, having seen how they were received. I still feel very strongly about her stance and her very public opinions, but I would like to say that her opinions are garbage, not she as a person. I humbly accept this correction from our many listeners who have pointed it out as going too far. The audio is what it is, but please consider this my public statement regarding this matter. 39:33 - Greenglass House by Kate Midford 40:23 - The Need by Helen Phillips 41:03 - The Water Dancer by Ta-Nehisi Coates 42:03 - Lord of the Flies by William Golding Books We Want to Press Into Your Hands: 43:12 - The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexander Dumas (Meredith) 46:11 - Serial Reader App 47:33 - Sleeping Giants by Sylvain Nuevel (Kaytee) 49:16 - Waking Gods #2 and Only Human #3 by Sylvain Nuevel Connect With Us: Meredith is @meredith.reads on Instagram Kaytee is @notesonbookmarks on Instagram Mindy is @gratefulforgrace on Instagram Mary is @maryreadsandsips on Instagram currentlyreadingpodcast.com @currentlyreadingpodcast on Instagram currentlyreadingpodcast@gmail.com
