When you're buying holiday gifts this year, think of supporting your local bookseller--in fact, Portlanders, go to Powell's TODAY--and buy some books. Aunt Frieda got a lame tin of popcorn from you last year, and your expensive friend Michael can pick out his own tea towels. And you can tell your sweetie that books are better than sex, anyway.
Not sure what to buy? Look no further than Editorial Ass's recommendations.

I like to use Amazon (where I have a prime membership) and Powell's in a symbiotic relationship. Amazon culls the choices for me, and then Powell's lets me take a closer inspection. Knowing Amazon's price at Powell's, I then go for the cheaper. Powell's wins about half the time.
Actually, that might not be symbiotic... perhaps competitive equilibrium.
