great list! I was actually just looking into some raw/vegan nutrition and info books, so this is really helpful, even if not for a gift

Thanks for this great list of books! If only I had time to read all of them I’m reading Tomatoland for my book club group. I just started it, but so far it’s pretty interesting. I’ll have to let you know what I think when I’m done!

Thanks for the suggestions of E-Books… amazing! Can’t wait to read about eating raw while traveling… sounds awesome. Have you seen Food Babe’s Holiday Gift Guide yet? Would love to put some Twin Cakes Bakery Goods on there…

BTW – Why doesn’t HHM carry your biscotti anymore…I used to be so in LOVE with it – having it in the afternoon with tea…

Thanks for the good suggestions girls….I have read half of those and loved them, so I am sure the rest will all be great as well. I just released my first ebook (http://www.integratednaturalnutrition.com/books/healthy-holidays-ebook/) and would love if you would review it on your blog. If you are interested, let me know and I will send you a copy! One of the desserts was even inspired by some of your holiday themed macaroons. Keep the holiday goodies coming!
