Podcasts about do not become alarmed

Meredith and Kaytee had to call in the big guns this week, so they invited Amanda Espinosa to join them for this special episode of Currently Reading! Continuing Important announcement: we have a great discount code to share with you from The Bookshelf Thomasville! Now through June 30th, you can get anything on their website for 10% off using the code CURRENTLYREADING (wow!!!) This would be a great time to pick up a Shelf Subscription for yourself or others! You’ll hear a “bookish moment of the week” from each host: a perfectly bookish gift for a Labyrinth fan, a fun reading tracking idea, and a local bookstore visit. Next, we discuss our current reads for the week. We are each sharing two recent reads, and there are some really big opinions in this episode, so get ready! For our deep dive this week, Amanda has done some amazing prep work to fill up your Currently Reading Challenge worksheet in the Science Fiction and Fantasy slot. She’s created a number of book flights for each genre, and, in an unusual twist, there are even MORE titles in show notes than there are in the episode! As always, we finish up with A Book (yep, capitalized) that we’d like to press into every reader’s hands. A magical realist novel, a humorous collection of stories centered on childhood, and a fantasy novel that will totally transport you and you might wish was real (with a TRIPLE COSIGN!) As per usual, time-stamped show notes are below with references to every book and resource we mentioned in this episode. If you’d like to listen first and not spoil the surprise, don’t scroll down!  .  .  .  .  .  2:24 - Jim Henson’s Labyrinth: The Novelization by A.C.H.

I hold certifications in TEFL and Youth Development.  In the office-like world, I possess more than 10 years of urban program management experience. My work focused on literacy and teaching.  In addition, I spent five years in the public library systems. Today, I am a board member for a nonprofit that brings the joys of reading to families.  When not promoting literacy, I parade around (more like beach down) as a pilot’s wife with four furry children in the sunshine state.  Obsessions include: YA books, brewery yoga, olives, decorating my home with owl everything, caticorns, and Sicily.  I have a reputation for finding breweries and wineries anywhere I go.
