Hello, book lovers! Tomorrow is a day when many of us reflect on all the things we’re thankful for. While family and friends are, of course, at the top of many lists, we readers have an addition or two: Thank you, Diana Gabaldon, for gifting us the next Outlander novel! (Can you believe it’s been seven years since the previous book was published?!) And, hey, even if you’ve yet to be swept up into that particular series, there are plenty more reads to be grateful for this year. So, without further ado, enjoy this mix of stories from the book world.
Have a safe and happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
