For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I bought a few actual books for people. A Sophie Kinsella for my sister, David Lloyd's book for OH and a science book for my son. I think my son would have preferred a Kindle version, but I thought it was nicer to get him a physical book rather than a notification that it was now on his Kindle. I'm old-fashioned like that.
I received a Richard Wiseman book.

I was given Stephen Fry / More Fool Me (anyone can have it, I wouldn't recommend buying); Bill Bryson Mother Tongue, well written but a little dated in its early chapters, still it was first brought out in 1991; Ha-Joon Chang / 23 things they don't tell you about capitalism (not read yet); and a baffling book about how to make knitted novelty characters, I may attempt a grasshopper in due course.
I always tell them not to buy books for me but they never listen and all were kindly meant anyway.
Either last year or year before - 3xcopies Casual Vacancy in hardback.....

Hi Cloverjo, had to look up Sophie Kinsella .. chick lit .. a nice easy read. David Lloyd I also hadn't heard of ... googling comes up with a tennis player? If it's sports related that would be why I haven't heard of him ;0) Now the Richard Wiseman book would interest me, not that I've heard of him, but I love reading psychology! Got to say I prefer books on download to my Kindle than a hardback these days.
Hi Mosaic, what didn't you like about Stephen Frys book? Bill Bryson is always entertaining. Ha Join Chang ... capitalism ... sorry I'm lost there! Knitted novelty characters, now I may have attempted that one. I too prefer to buy my own reading to be honest. You can't really say anything though can you when it's a gift x
