Every Christmas I do a Book Bundle “For everyone” present – with half a dozen great books that should appeal to everyone in the family. The idea being they are all passed around over the Xmas holidays and make for great chats over the Quality Street when the TV lets us down.
I’m a bit stumped this year though.
It’s for me (liking historical fiction and fantasy), DH (history, spies, whodunnits, bit of sci fi), DD20 (historical fiction, fascinated by the far east, loved Americanah and Memoires of a Geisha), DD18 (Likes all the typical YA type stuff- Hunger Games, Maze Runner etc, Science Geek – loved all the stuff on Turing and Hawking).
Hits over the last few years (as you can see it’s a bit random what’s a hit!)
The Martian
The Help
To Kill a Mockingbird (A surprise hit that none of us had read before)
Alan Turing – the Enigma
Brian Blessed’s Autobiography (Absolute Pandemonium)
11-22-63
Any suggestions? I'm ambling mindlessly around Amazon at the moment and feeling a bit uninspired
