Any suggestions as to which is the better of the guides for the VDLP? Are they both updated this year for 2019? I'm not going until April 2020. Will either of them be updated again by then?

If you use the forum search (top right corner), you'll find some threads that discuss VDLP guides, including this recent thread, which mentions resources such as Gerard Kelly's book, WisePilgrim app, Windymaps, Alison Raju's book, and others:

I haven’t walked the VDLP yet but I will soon. I have used the Wise Pilgrim app and Gronze and that has been more enough to find Albergues and the GPS if I needed it.
