Booking Through Thursday–Present Tense

hosted by Booking Through Thursday

This week’s question:

Any books you’re particularly hoping to be gifted this year? Any that you’re giving as presents this holiday season?

No. I rarely get books for Christmas and I rarely give them as gifts. Unless I give or receive a specific list, it’s close to impossible to get book shopping right. I know what I like to read, but I don’t know what other people like to read and if I do, I don’t know specific titles they’ve already read or haven’t read. I love getting gift cards for books because I always use them, but I rarely get them or give them because people seem to dislike gift cards due to how impersonal they may seem.
