Dd (21) has asked for motivational books as stocking filler for Christmas....where we live there are NO bookshops apart from a crap WHSmith so I am at a loss as to what to buy ....
She's currently on a work placement as an HR assistant and studying HR Management at Uni, but any kind of general feel good books would be useful
Can anyone help please...

I can really recommend Steven coveys seven habits.
Also the one minute manager books.

Gretchen Rubin - The Happiness Project or maybe Better Than Before are probably best to start with :)

If I Could Tell You Just One Thing by Richard Reed has short chapters of conversations with successful individuals who share their 'just one thing' piece of advice - might be good as a stocking filler as it's one you can dip in and out of rather than reading cover to cover.
