Your Call: What books are you giving as gifts this holiday?

  

It’s a Your Call tradition -- we get you ready to head to your independent bookstore with lots of gifts ideas for friends and family.  

Fiction, nonfiction, classics and good books for kids. We want to hear about the books you’ve been telling everyone about, and we’ll post recommendations here.

Guests:

Pete Mulvihill, co-owner of Green Apple Books in San Francisco

R.O. Kwon, author of the forthcoming novel, The Incendiaries, from Riverhead Books
