With the official arrival of Santa in our town yesterday, the silly season begins, as we try to do far too much, catch up with friends and family, buy appropriate presents, and eat far too much. I've solved the Christmas present thing for you: give books!
And you can help others find books by participating in a meme: Give Books for Christmas 2010.
This meme invites you to add links to a "Mr Linky" for crime fiction books you've read or reviewed and have no hesitation in recommending to others, or to a page on your blog where you have a list of recommendations. My own suggestions for Give Books for Christmas 2009 were really just my best reads for the year.
If you'd like to participate in Give Books for Christmas 2010 just go to the post and add your recommendations.
Of course, if you are looking for crime fiction books to give, it will provide an invaluable source of information too.
