If you have a bookworm in your life, you know that they can be tough to shop for. Most already have everything they need, and they’re not exactly the type to splurge on themselves. However, that doesn’t mean that they don’t appreciate a good gift! We’ve got a few ideas to help get you started on gifts for bookworms!
Convenient and Cozy Gifts
For the reader who loves to curl up with a good book, consider a cozy blanket or an oversized mug. Both will come in handy during long winter nights spent reading by the fireplace. For the traveler, look for a tablet or e-reader case or an attractive bookmark. Any of these ideas are sure to satisfy any bookworm in your life.
Books, of Course!
One of the many great gifts for bookworms is a new book. If you know what kind of books your friend or loved one enjoys, then you can easily find something that they’ll love. However, if you’re not sure what they like to read, then you can always opt for a gift card to their favorite bookstore. That way, they can pick out their own perfect book.
When it comes to finding the perfect gifts for bookworms, the book options are endless. For a reader who loves to escape into other worlds, consider a classic work of fiction like War and Peace or The Great Gatsby. For the history buff who can’t get enough non-fiction, gifts like a well-researched biography or an account of a current event will be sure to please. And for the person who is always looking for new and interesting reads, consider a subscription to a literary magazine or a gift certificate to their favorite bookstore. No matter what you choose, these gifts for bookworms are sure to be appreciated.
Keep Their Books in Good Shape
Some other thoughtful gifts for bookworms are things to help them keep their books in good condition. A set of nice bookends can help to keep their collection tidy, while a bookmark or two will come in handy for marking their place. You could even put together a care package with things like new dust jackets and appropriate cleaning supplies.
Book Clubs
If you really want to go the extra mile, then why not give the gift of an annual subscription to their favorite book club? That way, they’ll always have something new to look forward to reading. No matter what gifts you choose, your bookworm friend is sure to appreciate your thoughtfulness.
We also have some additional suggestions for gifts for bookworms:
- A tablet or other e-reader. This is a great way for them to have a huge library of books at their fingertips, and they can take it with them wherever they go.
- A beautiful notebook or journal. This is perfect for taking notes while reading, writing book reviews, or just jotting down thoughts about their latest read.
- A set of stylish bookends. These make a great decoration for any bookworm’s home, and they’ll be able to use them to keep their books organized on the shelf.
No matter what you choose, any of these gifts will be sure to please the bookworm in your life!
