It’s been a stellar year of cinema and pop culture-themed books, and the texts (and Blu-rays) in this round-up all make fine gifts. One additional book that should be on your year-end list is Mark Frost’s Twin Peaks: The Final Dossier.

Of course, with the questionable quality of some of Scifi's original programming I wasn't too surprised to read that tidbit of information after viewing the film.
