1. Book Nook ($50)
The Book Nook is the perfect station for physical book readers. It is “a reading time shrine that holds your book (and your place), reading glasses, beverage, and phone.”
2. Cozy Socks ($15)
These Barefoot Dreams socks are made out of the same material as their famous blankets. These socks will keep your feet nice and warm!
3. Fun Book Marks ($5+)
While I usually grab the closest receipt on hand to mark my page, I do love a good book mark. Fans of Fourth Wing will like this one. Gilmore Girl lovers will enjoy this one. Whatever their interests are, I promise you there is a bookmark to match.
4. Bookish T-Shirt ($28)
It is this writer’s opinion that one can never have too many t-shirts. This one is simple yet chic for those times when the bookish girlie must leave the house.
5. Book Quotes Desk Calendar ($25)
This cute lettered desk calendar has a quote a week for your desk and can be reused every year.
6. Kindle E-Reader ($140)
For the reader who prefers things to be digital, you cannot go wrong with the Kindle Paperwhite. It is comfortable to hold in your hand, has adjustable brightness settings, can be read outside (no glare!), AND it is waterproof. Needless to say, I adore mine and highly recommend one.
7. Bookish Mug ($15)
What goes better with a book than a hot cup of coffee or tea? This holiday themed bookish mug would be the perfect reading accessory.
8. Reading Lamp ($13)
This reading lamp clips on to the back of your book. It has multiple light settings and multiple brightness settings. It holds a charge for many, many hours as well!

Want to get your bookworm something prior to the holidays? This book lover’s advent calendar would be so fun to open every day leading up to Christmas!
10. Audible Membership ($15+)
If you have an audiobook lover, Audible memberships are a great way to gift them a book. You can choose how many months you would like to gift. Gifts can be given to existing audible members as well.
11. Book of the Month Membership ($60+)
Book of the Month is a monthly subscription box where members can choose one of the books that are featured that month by Book of the Month. I have been a member for over a year and love picking out my book each month! For my full thoughts on Book of the Month click here.
12. Booktrovert Tote ($9)
When a book lover goes to the library or the bookstore, they need something to carry all their books. Enter the book tote. This one is book themed and would serve any reader well as they gather books.
13. Personalized Book Stamp ($9+)
Many bookworms find themselves with their own personal library. And what better way to mark your books than with a cute book stamp? This one can be personalized and has 5 different design options to choose from.
14. Bookclub Candle ($38)
For the best reading vibes, light this candle! It features nutmeg, amber, and sandalwood scents with notes of orange, cinnamon, vanilla, and balsam.
15. Bookish Stickers ($3+)
We all love stickers. So why not help your bookish bestie declare their love for reading on their water bottle, computer, or Kindle? This “one more chapter” sticker is cute and generic for any reader. This listing allows you to buy a bundle of 10-150 stickers. And for your female readers, this “well read woman” sticker is perfection.
Bonus: of course, its hard to go wrong with a good old book. Here is a list of some of my favorite books I’ve read over the past few years.
Happy Holidays!
