Do you ever sit there wondering what in the world to get certain people in your life? They seem to have everything or they are the type of person to pick up whatever they want, whenever they want. It’s beyond frustrating. Until you sit down and really think about the person and their interests. For instance…they like to read. Sure you could get them a gift card to their favorite book store, but think outside the box a bit. That’s what makes this list of book lover gifts so perfect!

Book Lover Gifts
One of the best gifts, something I use EVERY SINGLE DAY (not even joking) that I ever got was my Kindle Paperwhite. Since I spend a lot of time in my car, waiting on my kids while they are at their sports practices, I make sure I always have my Kindle Paperwhite with me and loaded with books. Since it holds over a thousand books at once, I am never left without something to read (especially the newest Alex Cross book).

If you are going with a Kindle or they already have a Kindle, then the next idea on the quest for book lover gifts is Kindle Unlimited. If you aren’t familiar with it, Kindle Unlimited allows you to borrow books from Amazon for a small monthly fee. Want to check it out first? Sign up for the FREE 30 day trial!
For those that like to borrow books from their local library or read outside at the park, then you have to get them one of these adorable bags for carrying their books!

Book Lover Gifts for Aspiring Authors
This last set of gift ideas are my personal favorite. They are perfect for that aspiring author or book lover that loves to keep a journal. These unique journals have an entire book written within the journal…as the lines you write on! I have been eyeing one of these journals for a couple years!
A Novel Journal: The Adventures of Sherlock HolmesA Novel Journal: Little WomenA Novel Journal: Pride and PrejudiceA Novel Journal: Anne of Green GablesA Novel Journal: The Brothers GrimmA Novel Journal: DraculaA Novel Journal: The Wizard of OzA Novel Journal: Emma
Pick up one of these journals, a cute bag from above, a fancy pen or those Paper Mate Inkjoy Gel Pens
Oh my gosh, I love these! The bags are the best. I use my reader a lot, but I do have to keep my favorites in hard cover.
Aren’t the bags cute?!? I am going to order each of my kids one. They love checking books out of the library!
These are great book lover gift ideas. I know that I don’t get to read as often as I wish but these would make great gifts for me 🙂
About a year or so ago, I made it a goal of mine to make sure I take time each day to read. Sometimes I read for a hour and sometimes I read for only 5 minutes, but I have to say, once I did that, I was a lot happier.
I was actually struggling with what to get a friend of mine for Christmas who is a huge reader. You have helped me out so much thank you!!!
Oh good! You’ll have to let me know what you put together!
I love these ideas! I am a book lover and I would absolutely be thrilled to receive these items as gifts. I think the only thing I would prefer not to have is the kindle, as I do like a real paper book.
I personally have not gotten into ebooks. My kiddos and I love checking more and more books out from the library though!
For me, I like the ease of tossing my Kindle in my purse…though, there is something about holding and smelling a book!
