There are plenty of literary works that I would love to add to my library, and gifting me books is considered a love language; fluent speakers of this language are some of my favourite individuals.
It is very important to note that I feel very passionately about not supporting Amazon and/or Jeff Bezos.
If you would like to buy me a book, I prefer you purchase the work from Waterstones, Daunt Books, or directly from the author where possible.
