Best Books is drawing ever closer. To mark the moment, we highlight another gem from 2022 as we countdown to our December reveal.

The Catch Me If You Can: One Woman’s Journey to Every Country in the World by Jessica Nabongo (National Geographic) is the book we were inspired to keep on hand to create our resolutions and travel bucket lists for the new year. It’s a celebration of cultures disguised as a book. As winter takes hold, it is a great choice to re-visit or visit anew.
