Is this gift redundent?
I got my girlfriend a bunch of books that she wanted for her birthday...for Xmas I was thinking of getting her this really nice bookmark and a gift card to B & N.is that way to reudundent? should i steer away from the book idea?
the thing is she is young and married and they have all that house stuff u would need and has expensive clothes tastse so im trying to steer away from that..

I don't think it is redundant. I would rather get gifts that I want and can use then for someone to think of something unique that will collect dust on my shelf.
I would go with your idea - I think it's a great one!

If it was me, I would love to get something like that. It then allows me to get a book that I haven't read yet & wanted to!

If she's a reader, which from what you're saying she is, I think it's a great gift.
I would love it!
For my graduation a friend of mine got me chocolates, madelines, sparkling peach cider anda gift card to Barnes and Noble, it was so awesome, I can just imagine curling up with the cider and a good book on a rainy day!

Re: Is this gift redundent?
I think its great since you know she likes to read - and a gift card to B&N - there are other things there besides books, she can even use it at the cafe while she reads the books you gave her before:)

It sounds good although maybe a g.c for music instead? Does she have an IPOD? You could get her a g.c for I-Tunes, if not a cert for Virgin or Sam Goody or Amazon?

hmm the one thing i hate about gc's is i feel like its not something for them to "open" hence the bookmark idea lol..
im not knocking any of this--i love the ideas im just so confused!!!!! :)

Well if you're already getting her the books she wants, she does have something to open..I know this is tough.
