Review: Perfect Mug, Perfect Gift - I am in the process of collecting every single mug that the Unemployed Philosophers come up with. I was introduced to the line at a local (non chain) bookstore that is my go to for neat stuff. I’ve collected all of theirs and I was delighted to find even more on desertcart. Big enough for soup. Coffee with foam. Also make great gifts. If you can part with them…
Review: I love this one! - I got this mug as a Christmas present from my wife. There are so many reasons I love this mug. For starters, it is big! It holds a good amount of coffee in the morning or tea later in the day. Second, it is very well made. The cup is solid. I wouldn't say that it is heavy, but there is substance to it. I like that quality in a coffee cup. Third, the first line quotations are great. The patterning and color variations are very pleasing, and I can't help but read a few every time I use the cup. Some lines are from books that I have read many times and love while others are from stories that I have never read but have become more interested in. As a former English major and lover of literature (as well as warm beverages), I highly recommend this cup!

First of all these mugs are beautiful: great size, keep coffee/tea warm, and First Lines of Literature...who doesn’t love that?!? If you’re a book lover or know people who are, this is a perfect gift! Additionally, I needed to contact the company and they responded incredibly quickly to resolve a minor issue. Great customer service and a fabulous mug...this Bookwoman is one happy customer. For those reasons, I’m going to buy more, for sure!
