The Best Gifts for Bookworms

I’m totally hardcore. A hardcore bibliophile that is. I am completely smitten and utterly obsessed with books. The buying of them, the reading them, the re-reading them, the smell and feel of the paper, and hoarding them forever and ever and never getting rid of a single good story. I might be a bit obsessed. I don’t care who knows.

“Keep Reading.
It’s one of the most marvelous adventures that anyone can have.”
Lloyd Alexander

Gifts for Book Lovers –

Subscription boxes are the newest rage, and its not hard to tell why. Who doesn’t love getting a box in the mail every month filled with amazing and super fun things?! I know I certainly do! Whether you buy this as a gift for someone else, or as a gift for yourself, you’ll totally love these! There are some great book related boxes out there, including:

OwlCrate – sends out monthly themed boxes with a YA book and 3-5 keepsakes that fit the themed.
Bookish Box – monthly themed boxes that include an exclusively designed t-shirt and 3-5 home, beauty and fashion items in that theme.

Authored Adornments – This is a non-subscription box that I am totally loving. Each month is different, and is a one time purchase. With it you get two exclusive jewelry items from Authored Adornments as well as a 5×7 wall print, a sample sized coffee or tea and one full sized house product (like a mug, tote bag, throw pillow case, etc).
