Musing Mondays - May 4

Musing Mondays is a weekly meme sponsored by Jenn of A Daily Rhythm that asks you to choose one of the following prompts to answer:

• I’m currently reading…
• Up next I think I’ll read…
• I bought the following book(s) in the past week…
• I’m super excited to tell you about (book/author/bookish-news)…
• I’m really upset by (book/author/bookish-news)…
• I can’t wait to get a copy of…
• I wish I could read ___, but…
• I blogged about ____ this past week…

THIS WEEK’S RANDOM QUESTION: What would you do if you wanted to buy a book for someone, but didn’t know what they like to read? Would you ask them? Would you choose something you, yourself, like? How would you go about buying them something?

What an awesome question for this week. I would definitely ask the person. Unless they are someone I know from a particular civic or religious group, which would give me some insight into their preferences, I want to make sure what I buy is something they are interested in. If it's for a child, I usually just buy something my kids have enjoyed.

How about you?
