I do, and I actually have a really good hit rate with them, what's weird is that no one ever tells me about it.

For instance, I have a few friends who all live in the same house, so I sent them a copy of Good Omens, and got radio silence. A few years later I sent American Gods, radio silence. I gave it one more shot with the first Bobiverse book, and heard nothing.

I finally asked one afternoon, and it turned out that everyone in the house had read all the books and talked about them incessantly while reading them, but I was just never there for the conversations.

Needless to say, this is not a crowd that is long on sending "thank you" cards...
