Our annual tradition is back! Ahead of Black Friday, Small Business Saturday and Cyber Monday, we're sharing our favorite books to gift. This year, we're strongly encouraging you to prioritize banned books to ensure some of the most important and powerful stories get into the hands of new readers. We have recommendations across literary fiction, memoir, romance, YA, graphic novels, children's books, cookbooks, and more. In our catch up, Kaitlin shares about a bread pudding that altered her brain chemistry, Steph and Molly recap their weekend in Wilmington, Vermont, and Molly admits to falling down a One Tree Hill rabbit hole after reading Bethany Joy Lenz's memoir. In what we're reading this week, Steph devours The Housemaid, Kaitlin debates whether she can finish Holly, and Molly picks up another food-centric love story. To follow along with all of our reads, including this year's holiday gift lists, join us on Instagram @plansarebooked. You can also reach out to us at [email protected].
