Book Lovers Gift Guide For The Holiday Season
It’s November, but early Holiday shopping will help everyone out. Sometimes it’s hard to shop for people because you don’t know what they like. However, if you have some friends or family members who LOVE to read there are always gifts you can give. And most of the time, book readers are happy with absolutely anything. The gift of giving books or anything book-related will warm the hearts of many this Holiday season because there are plenty of options out there!
We have compiled a list of 8 Holiday gift ideas to help everyone out this season. Even if you think the book lover in your life may have an abundance of books, there are different things you can give them!
Special Editions
When it comes to special editions the cover art is always more gorgeous than the original. Even if your book lover has the series on their bookshelf, the collector’s editions or special editions are always the one’s they will put on display. Those are the books that won’t be touched but will be admired on the bookshelf.
2. Bookmarks
You can never go wrong with bookmarks because just like hair ties, they go missing sometimes. Whether you’ve been folding the corner of the page or using a receipt, bookmarks are always the way to go. There are new and creative bookmarks for the book lovers out there who want to try something different too.
3. Cozy Things
There’s something so comforting about getting comfy with a good book on your couch or in bed. It’s important to have the coziest accessories and clothing to get you into that mood. A new pair of pyjamas, fuzzy socks and yes, even a plushie can make those nights for your book lover much more peaceful and relaxing.
4. Book Merch
If your book lover is obsessed with a series (coughs Fourth Wing), then try to get them some merch from their favourite author or series! Or if they’re part of a book club, then gift them with merch from their community.
5. Book Accessories
If you’re not an avid book reader then you won’t know that there are many accessories that readers love. Some may love annotating books so any highlighter and colour tab pairing would work well as a gift. There are even kindle holders and a remote that they could control from the comfort of their bed.
6. More Books
This is the obvious gift for your book lover! The thing to do here is to see if they don’t already have the book and check the Goodreads winners from previous years. Make sure you know their favourite genre and pick something on the bestseller list! Or, if you think they would like something new, choose any genre from the Goodreads nominations.
7. Personal Library Kit
The personal library kit is fairly new and the sweetest gift you can get your book lover. If you know they have hoards of books and a gorgeous library at home, then this little kit would make them super happy. Being able to mark every book in your library after you’ve read it with your name is a very good feeling.
8. Gift Cards
Last but not least, gift cards are the safest gift you can give the book lovers in your life. You may not know what genre they love or the books they have in their library, so why not let them choose instead? Gift cards seem impersonal, but not when it’s to a store that you know the person you’re giving it to loves.
