Maybe you checked out our Gift Guide for Book Lovers and thought, "Wow, those would be great for my friend/spouse/dog," but then you totally forgot to buy them. Since only a Christmas miracle (or maybe a drone) will get those gifts there on time, how about sending an ebook instead? You can have it delivered wirelessly right away and no one has to know you waited until the last minute!

Check out our guide for some last-minute faves for book lovers:



Married by Midnight: A Christmas Story
by Talli Roland

A light, fun holiday read from one of chick lit's greatest writers. Makes a great stocking stuffer!






The Bigger Book of Parenting Tweets
by Some of the Most Hilarious Parents on Twitter

The holidays are hectic, especially if you have kids asking every five minutes when they can open presents. Anyone with kids will appreciate this book filled with bite-sized "we've been there" nuggets of parenting funnies.





Diana Gabaldon Outlander Series Seven Book Set
by Diana Gabaldon

Hey there, big spender! Rather than struggle to find a bunch of small gifts, give this 7-book bundle and be done. It will provide hours of entertainment that your book lover is sure to thank you for.





Amazon Gift Card

Give them the gift of exactly what they want! Pick a festive design and a dollar amount and email it directly to your lucky recipient.






We wish you all a happy and safe holiday season, loaded with books and plenty of time to read them!

Hopefully by now you've got your holiday shopping list just about wrapped up (if not, check out this fun list of 12 Christmas books we highly recommend—they make great gifts!).

But what about those few stragglers? Those hard-to-buy-for people on your list, like your kids' teachers, your boss, your mail person?

Check out our list of guaranteed hits:

The Big Book of Parenting Tweets
If the person on your list has kids, they will totally be able to relate to the hilarious quips in this book. It also makes a great teacher gift because, hello, teachers are surrounded by these little guys all day long!








Adult Coloring Books: A Coloring Book for Adults Featuring Mandalas and Henna Inspired Flowers, Animals, and Paisley Patterns
The busy holiday season can stress out even the most organized person. So that means that pretty much anyone on your list will enjoy these relaxing adult coloring books.






The Girl on the Train
Don't you just hate it when everyone at work is talking about a TV show you don't watch or a book you haven't read? You want to join in but you don't have anything to say. Give the gift of the bestseller everyone's talking about, and then your recipient can finally join in the conversation!







The Martian
People flocked to see this movie in theaters (with Matt Damon taking up most the screen, that really wasn't hard!) but isn't it always better to read the book?









Amazon.com Santa Gift Card Tin - $50
Of course, you can never go wrong with a gift card. Especially one in a cute decorative tin like this!



Happy holidays from BookStar!
