Ideal Gifts for Valentine's Day from the Book People
Thursday, February 4th, 2010The Book People have some great gifts for your loved one for Valentine’s Day. See below for a small selection:
The Great Loves Collection – 20 Books that on their own retail for almost £100 but they can be yours for just £15!
“United by the theme of love, the writings in the Great Loves series span over two thousand years and vastly different worlds. Readers will be transported to different places and introduced to love’s endlessly fascinating possibilities and varied forms… romantic love, platonic love, nostalgic love, unrequited love, illicit love, not to mention twisted and obsessional love. From the innocence of Mansfield’s Something Childish But Very Natural to the outrageous romps of seducer, gambler and general bon vivant, Casanova, you’ll find here stories that represent love in all its manifestations. Together the collection will make an outstanding gift for your Valentine – or you can choose to share them out amongst your many loves!”
Chocolate by Maxine Clark save £12 now £4.99 – “If there’s anything better than receiving chocolates from someone, it must surely be to know that they’re homemade. Making truffles and sweets is just one one of the skills you can master with the help of this mouthwatering collection of recipes that also includes tarts and pies, hot puddings and chilled desserts plus a special section on drinks, sauces and glazes.”
Love Lessons by Jacqueline Wilson save £9.49 now only £3.50! “Fifteen-year-old Prue has been educated at home by her controlling, super-strict father all her life. But when circumstances force her into the local comp, she begins to discover what it’s like to have a little freedom and a dangerous relationship with her art teacher begins to develop…”
