I love giving gifts and I love it when I find the ~perfect~ gift for someone. I try to be considerate and really think about the person I’m giving it to! I love that someone knows I really thought of a gift instead of being impressed by a price tag (although $$$ gifts can be safely considered). but you know what I mean… I’m trying to let them know how much they mean to me and that I really know them.
And I think as a book lover, I’m always impressed when someone takes my interests into account and gives me a book-themed gift! So that’s what I want to help you do: help you get your book nerd something special that they’ll love!

gift ideas for book lovers (that are not books)
Most of my favorite gifts to give to book lovers are from etsy! there are always some unique gifts to be found there. It hasn’t gone so badly for me with amazon or unusual products either.

Okay okay so technically these ARE books but I vote it’s different than buying them a book! Hear me out! Your resident bibliophile will be so impressed with this gift!
Book subscription boxes are wonderful and I think they make a great gift idea for people who love books, especially if your resident bookworm doesn’t tend to buy a lot of books on her own. Plus, it’s so much fun to get book mail!
This is something a lot of readers wouldn’t buy for themselves because it’s such a treat I’d love to! but I really think a book subscription service is a great gift for a bookworm that isn’t a book (technically).
