Holiday Shopping - Book Edition



With the holidays quickly approaching I thought I would do a mini-event highlighting some of my favourite gift ideas for the holiday season, especially for those bookish people in your life. It may same early, but plenty of these suggestions need to be order online. It is always a good idea to purchase early as shipping time is usually increased during the holiday season.

Today I have the lovely people from Simon and Schuster Canada helping me with some suggestions on what books to pick up for the people in your life. Jacke from Simon and Schuster, very kindly, offered up her suggestions on what to get based on the kind of reader they are!

Jackie from Simon and Schuster Recommends

  1. Thanks so much for sharing! I've been trying so hard to think of present ideas for people, so this is a good list to start with. Can't wait to see what non-book items you suggest! :)

I love comments. Thank you for stopping by my blog and thank you even more for leaving me a comment.

I have decided to make this an awards free blog. I appreciate the gesture, and love that you thought of my blog, however I simply can't pass them along as required.
