Last Minute Holiday Gifts | Books, Booze & Beauty

If you're reading this, you're probably a procrastinator like me.  Welcome to the club.  Have a seat, and make yourself comfortable.  Here's a list of gifts that you can grab and gift pretty easily.

books

Best book gifts.Books are something that most people will appreciate, and with enough thought (and Amazon's awesome shipping), you'll be able to find something for everyone.  I've managed to read one book from the reading list that I posted here, and I highly recommend Unaccustomed Earth by Jhumpa Lahiri.  The short stories are touching snapshots of family and relationships.

Here are a couple of other book lists that will help you choose the perfect book.  If you're buying for someone with a kindle, you can get the gift delivered instantly!
