So you missed Black Friday and Cyber Monday and you're scrambling now for the perfect gift. You want something that will last, is a great value, and can be delivered fast. The answer this year is the same as it's always been--a book. Or rather, a good book.
Here are three to consider:

The Man Who Built Boxes and other stories by Frank Tavares. Twelve stories and the first chapter of Frank's new novel. Midwest Book Review said,
"Each story is a minor masterpiece of the writer's craft. The totality of this outstanding collection, while thoroughly entertaining from beginning to end, is also thoughtful and thought-provoking and while works of fiction, resonate with real life experiences of us all. The Man Who Built Boxes And Other Stories is highly recommended for personal reading lists and community library collections." The Kindle edition is only $2.99

In Search of the Fun-Forever Job: Career Strategies that Work
by Ellis Chase. Is it just coincidence that the unemployment rate has dropped significantly since this book came out? Maybe not. According to reviewer Carolyn Warren, Whether you'd like to open your own shop, find the perfect niche in which to use your law degree, or do something entirely different, Ellis Chase can help you."
We're keeping the Kindle price low for the holiday season so you can get a copy for anyone on your list looking to find a new job or a new career. Kindle edition only $2.99

Blues for Beginners: Stories and Obsessions
by Judith Podell. Who doesn't like funny short stories? Or short funny stories? Here's how one reviewer put it: "No matter who you are you will find something in "Blues for Beginners" that will either call your name or have your name written all over it. You will find anything and everything you're looking for in "Blues", from the wild and wooly to the simple, sublime, revolutionary, and gorgeous. Snap shots of every day life, alongside the meanings of the smallest to grandest and most important things and people in our lives.
Give yourself just about the greatest gift you could receive,
Blues for Beginners, by author Judith Podell."
The Kindle edition is an amazingly low $1.99

Enjoy!
