The association also reports that more than 47 percent of shoppers plan to buy books for those on their holiday lists. And this year, many will turn to e-readers for the book lover on their lists.
"Buying new releases today can be costly, but when you buy the PocketBook e-reader edition, it generates major savings," says Leon Sheiman, marketing and sales manager for PocketBook-USA. "Our products come with access to a library of more than 250,000 books that people can download for free."
