How to Gift an E-book

If you’re one of those last minute shoppers (like us), but still want to give an item that is thoughtful, consider “gifting” your favorite e-book. Both Amazon and Barnes & Noble makes gifting an ebook (or any book) very easy.

Simply navigate to your favorite book , click on the box to the right side of the page that says, “Gift to friend” and you’ll be taken to a screen that allows you to enter their email address, personalize a message, and specify the date you want them to receive the gift. It’s that simple.

Looking for some book suggestions for the animal lover in your family? Here are a few of our favorites:

  • Shepherd's Moon: If you have anyone on your holiday list that enjoy reading urban fantasy and is currently experiencing withdrawal from books like Twilight, The Vampire Diaries, or True Blood, make Shepherd’s Moon the first book your friends see on their new Kindle, iPad, or Nook on Christmas Morning.
  • Homer's Odyssey: Part homebody, part hunter, the average housecat is endlessly entertaining. Meet Homer, a blind cat rescued from the street by a South Beach party girl.
  • A Dog's Purpose: The remarkable story of one dog's search for purpose over a series of lifetimes.
  • Holly's Story: A heartwarming tale of love and survival based on the true adventures of a "mutt" abandoned by the family she trusted, only to find a forever home.
  • Wolf Empire: An Intimate Portrait of a Species: For the wilder side, check out this detailed account of wolves.

Whatever book you decide on, this is a gift that takes minutes to give and one that your family and friends will love.
