Musing Mondays
Hosted by Gautami! Here is this week's question:Q: With the holiday season now upon us, have you left any hint – subtle or otherwise – for books family and friends might buy you for Christmas? Do you like to receive books, or do you prefer certificates so you can choose your own?
A: Everyone in my family would rather know what I want book wise, as opposed to guess. So I like to make their lives easier by telling them exactly which titles I need. Like most book bloggers here, there is always plenty of choice.
Wish lists are great, but I have learnt they can cause different people to buy the same book unless I suggest different books from that list for each person. The same thing happens for other members in my family that request books for Christmas. I tend to ask them (or their spouses), for specific book titles because I am much happier getting books they desire. Whether they like them, well, that's another matter!
What's your answer to this weeks Monday Musing?

I have made up wish lists, but I have no problem with bookstore gift cards since they're so much fun to redeem.
ReplyDeleteThat is a great question. Usually family will give me a GC but for hubby I make him a list. Its much easier this way.
