Tis the season to buy books, fa la la la la la la la la! If you’re looking for gift ideas for the book nerd in your life, you’ve come to the right place. Whether its a book, a book accessory, or a stocking stuffer, this post is full of gift ideas for the book lovers and readers in your life. Though this book does contain a few Children’s and YA titles and gift ideas, I’ll have a full separate post with additional titles!

Giftable Books

The highest honor I can give a book is giving it as a gift. If I’m buying a book for a loved one and they haven’t specifically requested that title, I will have read that book and given it five stars.

Some of these are light, some are heavy, and some are a mix. I’ll include a link to my Bookshop.org list, where you can find all of these titles and their full descriptions.

Non-Book Gifts

Sometimes, bibliophiles can be hard to shop for. After all, who knows what all they’ve read?! If you’re worried about choosing a book they already have or isn’t in their preferred genres, there are still plenty of bookish gifts to choose from. Linked items in this list will take you to an option from Amazon to give you an example. Here are a few:

• Book journal, to track their reading
• Tote bag, to carry their favorite reads
• Erasable highlighters, to highlight favorite passages with the option to change it later
• Kindle cover/accessories for the e-reader in your life
• Book scented candle
• Book-themed teas
• A bookish mug
• Cocoa, coffee, or their favorite beverage mix to enjoy while they’re reading
• Personal Library Kit, to make sure all the books they loan out get returned

Stocking Stuffers

• Book light
• Bookmarks
• Pretty pens/erasable highlighters for filling out book journals and highlighting favorite passages
• Cozy socks with bookish themes
• Pencil pouch for their favorite pens, highlighters, or charging cord and snacks for the e-readers
• Page holder to relieve hand stress (and feel fancy)
• Bookplates
• Bath Bombs for luxe bath-time reading
