My sister is a big reader — she always seems to have her nose shoved into a book — that is starting to develop a larger interest in cooking. That's why this year I'm thinking about getting her one of the many wonderful cookbooks and memoirs that have recently hit the shelves. If you've got a reader in your family — or someone who just loves cookbooks — take note, there are some great gifts to be found. One of my top choices is Cooking by James Peterson; it is an impressive tome with over 1500 color photos and is a fantastic reference for any cook. However, if your bookworm is more book and less cook, you may want to try The Amateur Gourmet, a charming book that's difficult to put down. Scroll through for more gift ideas, including one for a Deluxe Cookbook Holder.

These are great choices!
1The eaesdropping waiter book is hilarious.
2Another really great food author is MFK Fisher. They were written a long time ago, but still seem fresh and new and worth reading.
3There's always going to be the appeal of books over blogs I think.
4Thanks for the book ideas. I'm always looking for really good cook books.
5I can reccomend further 'How to Crack an Egg.' Very useful.
6I like blogs a bit better than cookbooks although books are always right there vs having to go online.
7My mother's old school Betty Crocker circa 1950 something is the best book ever.
8I like to have cookbooks to read on buses and cars though.
9I find that magazines are great reads for the recipes.
10If I'm with other people I don't read in the car...
11I like online for a lot of my recipes.
12And Real Simple.
