Season 2, Episode 28: Don't Read This Book on a Plane + How to Get Books for Review

Kaytee and Meredith have lots to share with you today, Bookworms! We hope you love this episode! You'll hear a "bookish moment of the week" from each host: a bookish realization, and a crafty bookish gift. Next, we discuss our current reads for the week. We've got some romance and some thriller and some non-fiction and some middle grade. Our reading lives are all over the place! For our deep dive this week, we are talking getting free books for review. Kaytee has been getting her hands on Advance Review Copies (ARCs) for years now, and she's sharing her wisdom about how to get signed up and ingratiate yourself with publishers. Finally, this week, we are Pressing Books into Your Hands: we've got a retelling that's fairy tale adjacent, and one that's not for reading on the plane. 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!  *Please note that all book titles linked above are Amazon affiliate links.
