Publisher’s note: Lake Tahoe News is looking for gift ideas that are less than $20. Find out how to make a suggestion.

For another shop local option, consider Meyers’ Bona Fide Books, the South Shore’s own small press. For the readers in the house, a great budget choice is one of two titles out from Bona Fide Books. “Permanent Vacation: Twenty Writers on Life and Work in Our National Parks” is perfect for nature lovers and the armchair adventurer. For those inclined to poetry, “Mud Cakes” is great for adults and YA.

Books are $15 each, and can be purchased onsite at Bona Fide HQ in Meyers or ordered online. (If you buy at Bona Fide, you’ll get a complimentary gift with your purchase.)

Bona Fide Books also carries a selection of books by local writers, so if mystery or history is your thing, drop in to Bona Fide for your holiday book needs.

Bona Fide is behind the Getaway Cafe in Meyers at 1069 Magua St., No. 4.
