It's almost time for 12 Days of Giving! For the past couple of years, I have really enjoyed creating themed book lists of great books to give for holiday gifts and I'm excited to do that again this year! Since I think we're all ready for holiday cheer a little early this year AND because it's going to be important to order early, I'm running the series for the first 12 days in November instead of December like I have been doing.
I'm taking the next week off daily posting to work on these lists and you can expect to see them starting Sunday, November 1. If you're antsy to begin, you can always check out lists from previous years with the tag twelve days of giving. Please support your local independent bookstore this holiday season. Shopping early is one way you can help them!
If you don't have a local independent bookstore, would you consider supporting one of my favorites? All of these bookstores are absolutely awesome and I would be so sad if they didn't make it through this pandemic.
- Brain Lair Books in South Bend, Indiana (Black owned! librarian owned!)
- Carmichael's Bookstore in Louisville, KY (my local indie!)
- Parnassus Books in Nashville, TN (a store I always visit any time we get down to Nashville)
I'm also happy to help with custom suggestions for the readers in your life!
