Gift books cater to everyone

So I'm flipping through Chronicle's various catalogs during lunch, and I found myself giggling out loud throughout the gift book catalog.
You got your basic diaries, your diaries with a twist (one line a day for moms), your diaries for pot smokers (the rather obvious title is How High Am I? A Journal)... no, I'm not kidding... then you've got your stationary sets, flash cards, office stress management boxed sets (including a stress ball wrapped in plastic - but I gotta tell you, that shrink wrap always puts me on edge!) and the Doodle Diet, which is not a book but a "set" of 40 (disposable) placemats so you can doodle, of course. Rather than eat, I presume.

Safe to say if you need to buy a gift for anyone this year, there's a gift book for that - and most are under $20.
