Well, if you just happen to be scrambling for a last minute Christmas gift… here is what I gave one of my grandmothers: Gift Lit!
Julie from Booking Mama highlighted this gift last month and I was so grateful. My grandmother is a voracious reader and is willing to try almost any genre. So, a few weeks ago I signed her up for a monthly book, sent directly to her home.
Gift Lit offers many categories, from very young readers to adults, and many genres. I decided on “Women’s Favorites” — but, not surprisingly, when I looked over the selections, my grandmother had already read 2 of the books! Happily, Gift Lit allows you to choose another selection, which I did.
Here is an overview from the actual site:
Our advisory board of librarians, educators, authors, and industry experts carefully select the most beloved books and gather them into unique collections. From historical fiction to bedtime stories for babies you can be sure that every book we choose is among the best books in its category. Our selections include award winners, old favorites, and hidden gems waiting to be discovered. Meet our experts.
SELECT A GIFT
Browse our collections by children, young adult, adult, and family. Collections are also organized by age group and theme. Once you have found a collection that is just right, select a 3-month, 6-month or 12-month gift. You can be confident that your gift recipient will get only the books they want, since they can substitute or return any of the books in the collection.
The site will also send an email gift card, too — so, if you accidentally left someone off your gift list, you can rectify this in less than 5 minutes!
