Books make an excellent gift at Christmas time, but also can be a great gift for yourself – especially if you’re looking to take a break from the screens that surround us in modern life. Having said that, reading a physical book isn’t the only way to enjoy these amazing stories.
Getting an Amazon Kindle can be a great way to carry lots of books round with you if you’re travelling, and you can often download books for a much lower cost. Listening to audiobooks is also a great way to stay on top of your reading when you’re on the go. Amazon Audible lets you download books onto your phone and listen as you go, and it’s also running a 30-day UK free trial right now.
We love the experience of going into a bookshop, looking at all the covers and picking out a few new titles. But life can get busy, and it can be tricky to find the time to continue to support your local bookshop. Shopping from a site like Bookshop.org also lets you support independent bookshops from home.
Here’s our list of the best autobiographies to buy this Christmas.
