Happy December!

Well, it's officially December, which means I am too late to wish everyone a happy Thanksgiving (oops), but I can now officially start pushing books as holiday presents without being too early! It's too late to take advantage of the ten reasons to shop for holiday books early (see previous post), but it's not too late to check out the ingenious "Buy Books for the Holidays" blog. With book recommendations, trends in book buying, spotlights on literacy charities and profiles of independent bookstores across the US, it provides some interesting insight into the world of books-as-gifts.

Stay tuned for more, as well as some book reviews from my Thanksgiving reading...
