Book Cougars | Book Cougars Episode 195 Holiday Gifts 2023 ❄ Audio Only ❄ @BookCougars | Uploaded November 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Welcome to our 8th Annual Bookish Holiday Gifts episode!
The first time we recommended holiday gift ideas was on Episode 2, way back in December 2016. Listeners enjoyed it so much that we’ve done it every year since. We hope you enjoy our ideas this year. Links to items discussed are in the show notes. We would like to note that none of our suggestions are ads or affiliates. They are things we have used or, in the case of custom bobbleheads, something we would like to try!
#NonfictionNovember hooked us this year and we are currently reading or have read:

In Biblio Adventures, Emily attended some in-person author events. She went to Bank Square Books in Mystic, CT to see Sigrid Nunez discuss her newest novel, The Vulnerables (), with Willard Spiegelman whose most recent book is Nothing Stays Put: The Life and Poetry of Amy Clampitt. She also saw Michael Cunningham discuss his new novel, Day, with Amy Bloom at R.J. Julia in Madison, CT. Chris had a lovely visit to Mystic Seaport Museum where she wandered aboard the last wooden whaleship in the world, The Charles W. Morgan, an experience that never gets old! She’s considering a re-read of Moby Dick in 2024.
