Bookreporter.com knows that readers crave ideas for gift-giving — and getting — around the holidays. With this in mind, the site’s annual What to Give/What to Get feature is live with “Reader Perfect” suggestions in 14 categories. In addition to traditional genres, Bookreporter.com presents some holiday-inspired categories including Holiday Spirit: Perfect Selections for Holiday Reading, Great Tools for Readers & Writers: Accessories for Booklovers and Stocking Stuffers: Books Small Enough to Pack Up in Stockings and Buy in Quantity. Readers will find book ideas for everyone on their holiday lists!

For a second year, Bookreporter.com is featuring Author Holiday Blogs from November 20th through Christmas Day. The lineup will include guest posts from more than 50 authors, including Sandra Brown, Stephen Coonts, Sandra Dallas, Barbara Delinsky, Jamie Ford, Robert Goolrick, Kristin Hannah, Marcia Muller, Lisa Scottoline and Donna VanLiere. Reading the authors’ pieces about gift-giving and getting, bookish tales of the stories that have enhanced their lives and the traditions that they share will provide an opportunity for booklovers to spend some time with their favorite authors — and celebrate the holidays.

“For our readers, books and authors are very special parts of their lives, so the chance to have authors share their words, along with the lists and contests, give us a chance to celebrate the season with them,” said Carol Fitzgerald, Co-founder and President of TheBookReportNetworkcom.
