Don’t Panic!! E-Books Make Great Last-Minute Gifts

You know the feeling. It’s almost Christmas and there are people you haven’t been able to buy anything for yet. Maybe they’re hard to shop for. Maybe you just haven’t had time. Maybe you accidentally left that person off your list.

Well, the good news is that you can give e-books as gifts. If you’re shopping on Amazon, you will find a box right underneath the “Buy Now” box where it asks if you want to buy the book for someone else. If you’re on the Barnes and Noble site, you’ll find a “Buy As Gift” link below the “Add to Cart” option.

It’s that easy. You can set it up so the gift’s recipient gets an email on Christmas morning, or whatever day you want. Then they can follow the link in the email and get the book delivered to their device. And you’re the hero!

And if that wasn’t cool enough, I’ve dropped the price of all my books to just 99¢ each.

Getting an email on Christmas morning saying you’ve received the gift of reading isn’t the same as finding a book in your stocking, but it might be close.
