EXTENDED: 25% off one book (with promo code) at Amazon

Amazon decided to EXTEND their book promotion by another day:  take 25% off any printed book, when you enter promo code BOOKDEAL25 at checkout.

(The rules are here.)

• This offer is only valid on print books. 
• Excludes Kindle eBooks and Audible Audiobooks.
• The promotion is valid for a limited time only, from 12/11/14 at 5:00pm PST to 12/14/14 12/16/14 at 11:59pm PST. Amazon reserves the right to modify or cancel this offer at any time.
• Offer only applies to products sold and shipped by Amazon.com.
• Limit one promotional code per customer and account.
• The maximum benefit you may receive from this offer is $10

So since the deal is 25% off and the maximum discount is $10, you want to get as close as possible to a $40 book to get the best bang for your buck. Remember that book sets are also part of this offer, as long as they are considered one item.

Lots of ways to go on this one.  Some suggestions:

• Books that made it to this year's NY Times Best Seller List
• What If?: Serious Scientific Answers to Absurd Hypothetical Questions by Randall Munroe
• The Hunger Games Trilogy Boxed Set 
• If you're interested in Jewish books, you can check out the Artscroll titles over here, or maybe score $10 off a machzor set here (yes, this code works on sets as well, as long as they have a single Amazon listing).   I was checking out the Stone Edition of the Chumash box set here or the single volume Stone Chumash here and the Sefer HaChinuch here.
• .If you'd like to get a keeper for your kids, there's the Harry Potter Paperback Box Set.
• All my fellow co-bloggers are suggesting classic kosher cookbooks as great options. 
• There are always coffee table books to consider.
• You can get an interesting reference book.  Every home should own the Oxford English Dictionary.
