So, I’ve been doing a little Christmas shopping this week, which for me, involves a lot of book buying. I love giving people a book they enjoy, probably more than any other thing I could buy them. And even better, if I’ve read the book too, we can talk about it after they read it. Books … discussions … supporting other authors … what’s not to like? 😉
So, I thought I’d share the books I’m going to give to my dad this year (since he never reads my blog). He’s getting Rain Fall by Barry Eisler and The 47th Samauri by Stephen Hunter. I may also buy him a John Sandford or another Lee Child thriller. Not sure yet.
My significant other is also getting several books, but I can’t list them here (because he does look at the blog).
And, of course, I’ve asked various Santas for several books, too. The latest J.R. Ward book (Lover something, I can’t keep them all straight), Don’t Look Down by Suzanne Enoch (the second in her Sam-Richard contemporary series), and Cold as Ice and Ice Blue by Anne Stuart (the second and third in her Ice series). There’s also a ton more I want to get, like Twilight by Stephanie Meyers, and several young adult books that have to do with superheroes, like the appropriately titled Hero. But I resolve to whittle down my TBR pile before I add too many more to it.
What about you? Are you planning to give books as gifts this year? Or have you asked Santa for some yourself? Inquiring minds want to know …
