Reply:twilight and new moon by stephenie meyer are a great deal together on amazon and are really good, but rebel angels or a great and terrible beauty by libba bray are also great too
Reply:there are many good books , the first one i would recommend is the bible , you cannot give a better gift. Karen Kingsbury is an excellent author of many good books, Jan Karon has the Mitford series. the left behind series by Tim Lahaye is also very good. Francine Rivers, Beverly Lewis,are just a few I highly recommend. you cannot go wrong on the ones i have listed .

Reply:Well, if the recipient likes mystery stories, Agatha Christie's autobiography is worth considering. For history buffs, I would recommend 'The Island at the Center of the World', by Russell Shorto. It's about the Dutch colony of New Netherlands, before the British took it over and re-named it New York. I received it as a Christmas gift myself a few years ago, and have been recommending it ever since.
Reply:Try anything by Fr. Andrew Greeley or Fulton Sheen.
