Booking Trough Thursday (22)

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

Oh wow I have a list a mile long of Books I'd love to get. Some of my top choices are:

Black City,Cannibal Reign,Ten,Born Wicked,Enchanted,Dark Inside,The Colony,A World Of Curiosities,When All Hell Breaks Loose and that's not even touching the Zombie books which could easily take up half the page. While I expect to get a few on my list, I really hope I get Giftcards to Amazon or Barnes&Noble instead. It's just so much easier than hoping someone picks up the right book. Still any I get I'll be happy with since I know my book wishlist is ridiculously long.

As for gifting I am buying a few but can't reveal them since I know the person receiving follows my blog. I love giving books as gifts especially when I know the person really would love what they receive and like me it's not a gift they use once. I always end up rereading books down the road and if it is a series I really love maybe even once or twice a year!!

Now for my questions, What book would you be over the moon to receive for Christmas? Do you prefer E-Books or physical books as gifts? Leave me an answer in the comments below, I love reading your responses!

    I wish I knew more readers so I could give the gift of books more often!
    Thanks for stopping by!

    A person would really have to be a reader, before I would give a book.

    Books you're going to give but can't reveal yet - what a suspense :) I read a lot of e-books but prefer the physical books as I collect them. And even if I don't (or can't due to time constraints) read all of them it's always a great feeling just to have them and see them nicely sitting on the bookshelf.

      I prefer Physical as gifts it's just so nice ripping open a box and seeing books inside. But if someone wanted to gift me an Ebook I'd gladly read it and not complain :)

    Physical books. Always. I don't have an e-reader although I've borrowed my son's a couple of times. Don't love it. I love giving books and gift cards are an easy way for people to get ebooks. I'm pretty sure my mom gave my boys B&N gift cards in addition to their gifts!

As the guests start dying one by one, Rachel realizes to her horror that she and the other teenagers are trapped on the tiny island with someone who may want to kill them all.
