Even if you don’t go through the day thinking about reading a good book, I’m betting you do care about what type of book to give this holiday season to your family, friends and employees who enjoys reading.

Here are our 6 suggestions.

1. Latest bestsellers. Narrow bestselling books to fiction or nonfiction. Then decide on paperback or hard cover.

2. Cookbooks. When selecting a good cookbook, think culture or a place the recipient of the gift would like to visit. This is the same popular method that is used when creating gift basket themes.

3. Inspirational writings. A book of inspirational writings is one of the best gifts an employer could give an employee. It lifts everyone’s spirits and increases morale.

4. Health guides. The market for the health conscious has exploded. Choose from weight loss, diabetic, low fat and low cholesterol.

5. How-to manuals. I’ve done it and you have too- searched high and low for information on how to do that one thing. How-to manuals save time and prevent costly mistakes.

6. Kids’ books. I know we live in the age of video games however, a kids’ book would show your commitment to our children’s future. For instance, taking their imagination to a place they’ve never been before.
