Books arc perfect,
surc-to-plcasc holiday
gifts. With thousands of
titles in bookstores, it's
certain something can be
found for even the pickiest
of recipients. Novels,
nonfiction, how-to, religion, poetry, sports, cooking, child care, humor, travel, health, business, sell-help books and more arc available to appease the tastes of everyone on your list.
A foolproof way to cop an excellent gilt is to match tastes and interests with a book. If Uncle Don is an avid fisherman, a tishing book (and there arc several) would undoubtedly win his heart. And for sister-in-law Sue who is about to embark on- a cruise to Alaska? An Alaskan travel guide of photography book should warm her up lor her big journey. And most people appreciate gorgeous coffee-table books to enliven their living rooms.
What will the rest of readers, browsers and aficionados of fine books clamor lor this holiday season?
Tom Clancy's "Executive Orders" (G.P. • Putnam & Sons) and John Grisham's "The Runaway Jury" (Doubleday) should satisfy intrigue fans.
"Third Twin" from Ken Foiled (Random House) and, if we can stand one more O.J. chronicle, "Journey to Justice" by Johnnie Cochran (Random House), are both certain to be big sellers, according to a Borders spokeswoman.
And Michael Crichton’s "Airframe" (Random House) is due to appear on bookstore shelves in December lor last-minute shoppers.
Stephen King followers can get scared twice with "Desperation" (Viking), using his own name as author, and "Regulators, using his pseudonym, Richard Bachman (Dutton). Scoring a sure marketing coup, the two books feature jackets that, when unlolded, form one picture side by side. Anne Rice latest offering is "Servant ol the Bones 1 AKfClJ i\ KflWt«%«*• • * * *•'
