On Episode 174, we share LISTENER TOP 10s of 2022. Thanks to the 70+ listeners who contributed their top 10 lists. Out of 427 books, Emily shares not only what the combined top 10 titles are (actually, 11 titles because there was a tie) but also who the most frequently listed authors are. We also talk about our READING INTENTIONS & GOALS for 2023. Listeners shared their plans and intentions on a Goodreads thread (bit.ly/2023_Reading_Intentions_and_Goals). The discussion is ongoing and inspiring.
Reminder: PARNASSUS ON WHEELS by Christopher Morley is our first quarter readalong. If you’d like to join our live Zoom conversation on February 26th at 7 PM (ET), send us an email (bookcougars at gmail dot com). Here’s the Goodreads discussion link: goodreads.com/topic/show/22401319-parnassus-on-wheels-by-christopher-morley
In our JUST READ segment, we talk about:
ROUGH SLEEPERS: Dr. Jim O’Connell’s Urgent Mission to Bring Healing to Homeless People by Tracy Kidder
HOW THE WORD IS PASSED: A Reckoning with Slavery Across America by Clint Smith
A HEART THAT WORKS by Rob Delaney
THE WINTER OF OUR DISCONTENT by John Steinbeck
And in BIBLOADVENTURES, we recap our day in Boston, where we visited three bookstores: Brattle Books, Beacon Hill Books & Cafe, and Commonwealth Books. We had a blast! Emily had a solo biblioadventure, also in Massachusetts, where she saw Tracy Kidder in conversation with Dr. O’Connell discussing his new book ROUGH SLEEPERS.

Small World by Laura Zigman
Decent People by De’shawn Charles Winslow

Happy Listening!
