Galleys

For the past few weeks I have been reading the galley books I've been able to download to my Kindle from NetGalley -- the only other way to download books other than through Amazon that I know of. What an enjoyable time -- good books and I do like my Kindle. My only problem is I have forgotten to write reviews of the books. Seems only fair that I should write a review in exchange for a free book. Maybe it's just the Christmas season and my mind is cluttered.

The cookbooks are good -- full of really interesting information and recipes. I've downloaded them to my desktop. They are in PDF form, easy to read, but hard to navigate and print. I must be doing something wrong so I will investigate more before I say anything else.

Great site for book related gifts

Don't you just love this site: Cafe Press

Cafe Press has the greatest magnets, t-shirts, stickers, mousepads, tote bags and more.

Hope they don't mind that I borrowed this graphic, but I wanted to display one unique picture that you can get on a variety of items.

Everything for the librarian who has everything!

List of gift ideas

The children's book review blog, Bookends, has posted a great list of book gift ideas. Many good suggestions for all age levels. I'm not that familiar with elementary books so this list will help me a lot!
