Happy New Year, and welcome to a new format for Parenting Roundabout! Instead of a lengthy group chat every Monday and mini-episodes the rest of the week, we'll bring you a short segment every Monday through Friday covering, as usual, the things parents are talking about, complaining about, and obsessing about right now.

Round 1 on Mondays will be our "talking about" segment. Today, we scan Amazon's lists for best-selling and most-wished-for parenting books (or should we say "parenting?!" books) to see if there's anything we've read, anything we'd want to read, and most importantly, anything written by Terri or Nicole. No? C'mon, Amazon!
