We know that you could do your Christmas present book shopping from Amazon's best seller lists, but we like to suggest more unusual books that we've enjoyed over the year. Hopefully you'll find something for everyone here.  '''This Year's Quirky Big Seller''' {{topten|title=The Guest Cat|author=Takashi Hiraide|rating=4.5|genre=Literary Fiction|summary= The book which is being tipped to be this year's surprise big seller with over sixteen thousand copies sold in just over six week after publication is this little gem, which enthralled our reviewer: ''The Guest Cat'' had me at the cover. The reflective green material makes the cat's eyes glow and glint eerily in the light. There is something ethereal and otherworldly about this novella and that is before I've even read a single word. This simple story about a Japanese couple and the cat that decides to adopt them has become an international best-seller and I was keen to find out why.|amazonuk=<amazonuk>1447279409</amazonuk>}}

|summary= ''For our favourite book it was difficult to decide between [[Apple and Rain by Sarah Crossan]] and [[The Ghosts of Heaven by Marcus Sedgwick]]: we loved them both! We liked [[The Winter Horses'' is by Philip Kerr]], a story where history and magic co-exist and teens who enjoy this will also love one of the big books of the year - [[Five Children on the Western Front by Kate Saunders]] - and there are many more in our [[Top Ten Teen Books of 2014]]. Over the years we've come to love Skulduggery Pleasant and this year saw the [[Skulduggery Pleasant: The Dying of the Light by Derek Landy|ninth and final]] book in the series.|amazonuk= <amazonuk>1406359831140885306X</amazonuk>
