Show notes:

We know, we know - as Sarah says, it’s not even Thanksgiving yet! BUT it’s never too early to start thinking about the holidays, especially when it comes to books. Today, we’re sharing the holiday books we’re excited to dive into this season. Plus, we talk about which The Grinch movie is the correct version, Christmas hell (eek!), ephemeral marshmallows, and what the heck is a kringle anyway?! Happy (early) Holidays, friends!
