And with the holidays approaching fast, my friend A over at Read Now Sleep Later created some posts about the best gifts to buy this season for that certain book lover in your life. 

My list is below, some of it already posted on RNSL, and for more ideas, be sure to check out Read Now Sleep Later this week!

A wonderful re-telling of the Robin Hood legend.


Shadow & Bone by Leigh Bardugo
YA fantasy at its finest




Liar & Spy by Rebecca Stead
A slim yet thought provoking book



Wonder by R.J. Palaccio
Heartbreaking, heartwarming, and all in between

I'm a sucker for Rebecca retellings! (Rebecca by Daphne duMaurier is one of my favorite books.)

Urban Fantasy with a sharp hook of funny


The Restorer by Amanda Stevens

A couple of awesome things I discovered this year-
My friends L and T are totally in love with this Canadian tea company called David's Teas. Our friend J got them hooked and now we can't stop ordering from them!
I know their unique blends, large selections and beautifully crafted teas will hook you too!
I may have ordered a very large box of tea just for myself. Merry Christmas to me! :)


I was in NYC last week and my friend C took us to this little stand at the Union Square Christmas market. There, I was introduced to No Chewing Allowed, a French truffle company. They also sell hot chocolate.
SWOOOOON!
Yeah, I couldn't buy it all to bring back so I may have ordered it online. 
Just saying. Totally worth it for that chocolate lover in your life.

What are you getting people this holiday season??
Thanks for reading!
