NaBloPoMo | Why I Love A Good Book [Cover]

I be honest I don’t read too many traditional books.  I used to when I was younger, like in middle and high school, but in recent years I haven’t.  I can count the number of actual physical books I’ve read in recent years and it might be two.  However, I do know that if a book has an interesting cover that it catches my eye.  At the least, I will pick the book up and read the back or the prologue to see what its about.  Most of the books I do read these days are how-to books, cookbooks, or self-image/makeup-up/fashion/beauty.  I’m not so much for novels, because I never really take the time out to dive into one and get lost in it.  With the internet and social media, its so easy to get caught up in reading the ‘instant’, than reading a real book.

Give Something Personal This Holiday Season

This year, it’s all about personalizing your gift for that special someone. And they deserve it!

If you have a digital camera-whether it’s your smart phone or your DSLR-chances are you have a lot of wonderful photos of the people you love. And there’s a pretty big chance that if you do, those photos haven’t seen the light of day since you first took them, posted them to Facebook, or picked that new wallpaper for your smart phone or computer.
Now, imagine those photos in a book, given as a gift. Wouldn’t you look like the best most thoughtful person ever? Yeah, you pretty much would. And with Blurb‘s easy, custom books, you can make a photo gift book that’s both personal and extremely polished.


You can use your Facebook photos, Instagram photos, or photos on your computer. You can design your own book, or have it automagically created with the Blurb Designer Collection templates. All these tools are designed to run right in your web browser, letting you make a book in as little as ten minutes, and they start at just $12.99.
A real book. One you can hold, share, and pass on. Plus it’s so easily customized that you can create different versions for different people. Just swap in a few new photos, change the text, and re-order. Looking to make something a little bigger, like a family history book? Yeah, Blurb has ways to do that too.

Of course, this is a custom gift, so you don’t want to be last minute about it. Even though you can order up until December 19, ordering early is always better (and a bit cheaper too).
So, get started on making a beautiful gift book now: Blurb
