12 Days of Giving 2020 and Master List



ETA (11/28): Shop local this weekend! If you spend at least $15 at your independent bookstore of choice this weekend, Libro.fm will give you a FREE AUDIOBOOK from a selection of great ones! They're not paying me to say this, I just think it's an awesome deal! 

This year's 12 Days of Giving posts are all up and ready for your perusal. Books always make great gifts and I have ideas for all kinds of readers. Here I'm posting all the 2020 lists and a master list of subject-specific lists from previous years because books never go out of style! (They do sometimes go out of print, so just be aware. If you spot books on these lists that aren't available to purchase, consider requesting them from your local library instead!) 

Please support your local bookstores this year if you can; they need us now more than ever. And if you don't have a local bookstore, consider supporting my local indie Carmichael's Bookstore. You can order online and they are fantastic! 

2020 Favorites: 
If you are searching for brand new books or shopping for big readers who need the latest and greatest, these are the lists for you!

If you're shopping for a particular kind of reader or kids with special interests, you may find something in the lists below! I've specified what ages are covered in each list and what year they were originally posted to help you out. These lists will contain backlist titles, so be aware that some titles may no longer be available to purchase. 
Favorites Lists from Previous Years
Maybe none of my 2020 favorites struck a chord with you. Check out these past favorites lists for more titles to consider! Bonus: these make great library lists because they're more likely to be available without long holds lists.
