I’ve rounded up a collection of books that would make the perfect gift for your girlfriends, whether in need of a bit of motivation or to show you’re thinking of them.

A book is always a well-received present, and if you want to go one step further, how about a book subscription from Heywood Hill, one of the leading bookshops of London.

Heywood Hill offers ‘a year in books‘ subscription, subscribers are invited for a consultation and books are then carefully selected by your personal bookseller and posted out monthly, arriving beautifully wrapped to your door;  an incredibly personal and thoughtful gift.
