The holidays are just a couple of weeks away, but there is still some time to finish your shopping.  Today marks the final installment of my holdiday gift guide.  I've already come up with two lists of books for everyone on your list as wells as some non book gifts (including ones that won't break the bank).  If you can't make it to a local bookstore, there is still time to order from Amazon, Half.com, and Barnes and Noble online.  Many websites are even offering free shipping with purchase. 

For the runners in your life:   The Athlete's Guide to Yoga:  An Intregrated Approach to Strength, Flexability, and Focus ((there's also a DVD with the same name that may make a good bonus gift) and Runner's World Run Less, Run Faster:  Become a Faster, Stronger Runner with the Revolutionary FIRST Training Program

For true literary crime fans:  Can You Ever Forgive  Me? Memiors of a Literary Forger by Lee Isreal

For crime fiction fans: Devil Bones by Kathy Reichs (or any of the Temperance Brennan novels that the FOX show Bones is based on) and Patricia Cornwell's Scarpetta

For middle grade and 'tween readers: The London Eye Mystery by Siobhan, Savvy by Ingrid Law, Tales of Beedle the Bard by J.K. Rowling

For teens in high school:  My Most Excellent Year: A Novel of Love, Mary Poppins, and Fenway park by Steve Kluger and Jerk California by Jonathan Friesen

Come back tomorrow to see my list of best used and independent bookstores for holiday shopping around Seattle
