Thanks for listening, everyone.
See you next week.
Welcome, everyone, to the Sunday Special.
I'm Gilbert Cruz.
Thanksgiving has come, Thanksgiving has gone, and that can only mean one thing.
The holiday season is fully upon us, and it's time to start thinking about gifts for your family and friends.
I know, I get it, this can be a stressful activity, but do not despair.
because I am here to tell you that books are the best gifts.
You can literally find a book for every single person on your list, no matter what they're into, no matter if they even read books.
So that is what we're going to talk about today.
With me today are two of my colleagues who I often pester for gift ideas for people in my life.
Both are editors at The Book Review, Jumana Khatib.
Welcome, Jumana.
And Sadie Stein.
Thank you for having me.
Okay, before we dive in, you both read books for a living.
But what does reading for pleasure look like for both of you?
All right, Sadie, you were on the Sunday special earlier this year when we talked about going back to school, things that we read when we were younger.
