Can you believe we are only a week, give or take, from
which ever seasonal holiday we celebrate? Be it Yule, Chanukah, Kwanza,
Christmas or other celebration, it's just a couple of weeks away. This
year for many of us, finding the right gift and not breaking our
personal bank is perhaps more difficult than ever before. A book may
just be one of the best choices.
A print book is something that will last for years -- Gina has her
father's complete collection of world's greatest literature (through the
early 1900's) . The collection dates from 1920 and for 90 year old
books, most of them are in pretty good shape. There are a number that
have been read over and over again by family and herself, but they have
withstood time pretty well. A print book, one that you can write a
special dedication in, is a gift the recipient can treasure for years to
come.
Ebooks are outstanding for our mobile society. On the go, an ereader,
Palm, iPOD, Kindle or whatever you use guarantees reading material right
at hand where ever you are. Many manufacturers are having sales this
year of various readers, several publishers and authors are running
contests to win a free one. They are a gift that will last a long long
time. Ebooks are easy to store--your computer, memory stick, reader,
disc--and can be enjoyed over and over again. A number of publishers are
having deep discount sales this season with as much as 30-50% off
ebooks. Most have gift certificates so your recipient can choose his or
her own.
Books are a gift that can give for year after year. They may be the
answer to at least a part of your holiday shopping dilemma.
From the entire staff at Love Romances and More Reviews -- Happy
Holidays.
