Gifts for Book Lovers (That Aren't Books)

Gifts for Book Lovers (That Aren’t Books) are for the person who always has a bookmark nearby, a half-finished novel on the nightstand and strong opinions about reading in bed. Look for useful little luxuries that fit naturally into their routine: something for a quiet morning with coffee, a long afternoon in a favorite chair or the part of the evening when the phone goes face down and the outside world can wait. The best gifts for readers don’t interrupt the ritual. They make it cozier, more personal or slightly more amusing.

These gifts also work well for librarians, teachers, writers, students and anyone who considers “just one more chapter” a perfectly reasonable bedtime strategy. Think about their habits and surroundings when you choose: practical accessories for daily use, comfortable touches for a reading nook or a small gift that nods to their love of stories without adding another title to an already precarious stack. Whether you’re shopping for a birthday, holiday, thank-you or an excellent excuse to celebrate someone’s excellent taste in fictional people, a thoughtful non-book gift can become part of the reading life they already enjoy.
