12 Days of Christmas Gift Ideas for Book Lovers Day 1: Amazon Gift Card & Giveaway

I feel like it's getting harder and harder to pick out a good gift for anyone these days. Nobody in my family ever needs anything and they'd prefer money or a gift card over a hand-picked gift anyway. But I still think it's fun to pick out a gift that is unique to each of them well because for me, that's what gift giving is about.

I have three other book lovers in my family (my dad, mom, and sister) and always struggle to figure out what to get them other than just a book. Well this year that's going to change. Over the next 12 days, I am going to introduce you to a new and unique gift idea for your favorite book lover AND give you the chance to win that gift.

So welcome to the 12 Days of Christmas for Book Lovers -12 days of great gift ideas and giveaways. Here's a sneak peek at what's to come but this is one celebration that you don't want to miss.


Day 1: Amazon Gift Card
Let's start December off right with the one thing that you could give any book lover - an Amazon gift card. With an Amazon card the possibilities are endless - a new Kindle, Kindle accessories, eBooks for your Kindle, books, magazine subscriptions, bookmarks, reading lights, etc. This is one gift card that I think anyone, especially a book lover, would love to receive!

Now as promised, who wants to win a $25 Amazon gift card? One lucky reader will win just by commenting on this post. And I won't tell if you just keep it all to yourself.
