Which means winter is on its way–although depending on where you live, you may feel like it’s here already. So with a new season means a new theme for The Season sites. If you’ve checked out the new December issue of The Season, you may have noticed the new theme already. Bear with me, the actual reviews will be us soon but in the meanwhile you can check out many of publishers’ offerings for this month of Christmas.

If you were a winner in the Thanksgiving MEGA Giveaway, remember you have until December 3rd to contact me with your list of books. I’ll be responding to everyone then. Oh and please remember to read the rules–there are only so many Premium books you can get.

Now let’s talk about Christmas shopping. Have you started yours yet? I’m halfway through my son’s list–all of which I’ve ordered from Amazon and boy are they fast. I received the Kindle Fire first. I had to give it the once over you know, charge the battery, test it out. I’ll say this about it, for $199 it’s not a bad deal. It’s definitely not the iPad and is 100% Amazon-centric. For myself, I wouldn’t purchase it over an iPad but for a second tablet and one for a child who doesn’t need some of the fancier features of an iPad, I don’t think you can go wrong. I’ll tell you more about after Christmas when it goes into full use.

eReader users, do you feel you got gipped in my Thanksgiving Giveaway? Well I’m going to try to fix that in a very small way today by giving away 3 $10 eGift Cards from an etailer of your choice.  Just comment to enter to win!
