Presents for readers

Today is my birthday (yay!), and as I will be jollying around Lisbon this is a scheduled post of suggestions for presents for bibliophiles:-

One. 
How about a good book? hahaha pretty obvious, but why not? If you're stuck for ideas, have a look at my recent reviews and see what I did/didn't enjoy. Another useful place to look is goodreads which has a massive archive of reviews. Alternatively go out there and get some human contact, your local bookseller will have loads of recommendations. 
Currently on my wishlist are:-

  1. The People of Forever are not Afraid- Shani Boianjiu. A coming of age novel about young women doing their national service in Israel 
  2.  We, The Drowned- Carsten Jensen. A literary voyage about a crew of Danish sailors in 1848 
  3. The Lost Books of the Odyssey-Zachary Mason. Continuing my current hobby for Greek epics. 
  4. Far From the Tree- Andrew Solomon. Non-fiction, examining genetics and parenting     
Ok if a book is too obvious or you're not sure what the person you're buying for has read, I have plenty of other suggestions after the cut....
