The 2017 Book Gift Guide

Every year I try to give everyone on my list three main things: something they want, something they need, and something to read. The ‘something to read’ part is my favorite aspect of gift giving during the holiday season.

Knowledge is wealth and in my interest of spreading good cheer and knowledge, I thought a book gift guide would be perfect to share as we start getting our lists out of the way.

Here’s my 2017 Book Gift Guide:
