Book Cougars Podcast: Two Middle-Aged Women on the Hunt for a Good Read

We wrap up our read along of The Doctors Blackwell with an interview with the author, Janice P. Nimura. Emily explores the life of one Tokyo housewife through Emily Itami’s debut novel, Fault Lines, and finds solace and inspiration from Maggie Smith in her book, Keep Moving: Notes on Loss, Creativity, and Change. Meanwhile, Chris has been listening to Farah Jasmine Griffin read her new work that is part memoir and part literary & cultural history, Read Until You Understand: The Profound Wisdom of Black Life and Literature. In biblioadventures, Both Book Cougars glow on about a charming seaside library up in Maine, the Ogunquit Memorial Library which has its own look-alike Little Free Library.
