No matter what you celebrate this winter, I hope you'll find great ideas, gifts, enjoyments, and treats here. One thing you're probably interested in year-round is books—and it's so interesting to me to see how what that looks like shifts throughout the year. Now that the holidays are upon us, interest in [Don't Overthink It]( and [Reading People]( is once again zooming, and with good reason! [Don't Overthink It]( is about not just about dialing down the frequency on negative thought patterns; it's also hugely focused on getting out of our own way so we can bring more joy into our life and relationships. Perfect reading for this time of year! Also timely: [Reading People]( is about better understanding yourself and others through the lens of seven popular personality frameworks—essential reading in a season when many of us spend time with people who matter dearly to us, even if those relationships aren't always the smoothest. This book will help. These books have been incredibly helpful to so many readers for the insights they deliver about ourselves and the practical, actionable changes they make possible. (Lauren just told me on Instagram about Don't Overthink It, "This book changed my life! I’m not even kidding!") I hope you'll pick up a copy for yourself or a loved one this season: a good book is a gift that keeps on giving.
