I have used unattended-upgrades. It will either handle reboots
automatically, at a time of day you specify, or it will let you know.
Unattended-upgrades can be configured to send an email to an
appropriate user when it runs. It will let you know if a reboot is
required in the subject line. The email consists of the log of the
upgrade process, so you can see exactly what it did, including packages
upgraded.
You can use the automatic reboot if you don't have an encrypted file
system; otherwise, I recommend you reboot manually.
