Meagan's Book Club Podcast

It's time for a little bookish life update! In this episode, I'm catching you up on what I'm currently reading, sharing an exciting update on our built in bookshelves (yes, it's finally happening!), and reflecting on the books I've read this year that have stayed with me long after turning the final page.
I'm also looking ahead to the end of the year and sharing two books I hope to squeeze in before January arrives.
Think of this as a little catch up between friends, with plenty of book talk and a peek at what's happening in my reading life lately.
In this episode:
What I'm reading right now

The latest on our built in bookshelves!

Books I've read this year that are still living rent free in my mind

Two books on my must read before the end of the year list

Grab your current read, settle in, and let's catch up!

October's What I’m Loving is here! This month I’m sharing what I’m watching, reading, cooking, doing more of, buying, and—of course—what I'm reading.
I'm talking about what we've been up to in October and what we have left for the rest of the month, what has been on my tv lately - spoiler, it's a lot of sports, the book to screen adaptation I don't plan on watching anytime soon, playing Mahjong with new friends, and of course the books I'm currently reading. I end the episode with a super personal update about what's going on in our ex-mormon journey.

I can’t believe we’re already talking about Q4 books! I’m joined by my friend Hannah from @booksandbitesroc to chat through the books we’re most excited about for the rest of the year. Our list may be a little shorter than in past episodes, but there are still plenty of books to talk about!
We’re also sharing our top five favorite reads of the year so far, so there are quite a few books to add to your TBR.
You’ll find all of the books we mention listed below!
And don’t worry, we’ll be back in mid-December to talk all things Q1 2027. Keep an eye out for that episode!
