Great Gift Ideas for Bookworms
In this digital age, being a bookworm is a wonderful thing. Reading a book is perhaps the best way to escape the pressures and stresses of everyday life, get away from the constant social media interaction and escape your own problems and worries by diving into someone else’s world for a while. However, it can be tricky buying a gift for a bookworm. They’re probably already read most of the books in the bookstore but you still want to get them something they will love. Here are some interesting and unique gifts for the book lover in your life.
A Book
When you’re not sure what they have or haven’t read, buying a book can be difficult. But, if you know what their favorites are, or who their favorite author, is you’ve got other options. You could get a first edition, limited edition, or even a signed copy. These all make exceptionally thoughtful gifts and show how well you know the recipient.
Candles
What could be more relaxing than snuggling up and reading a book by candlelight? If you want to make this gift even more personal consider candles for book lovers, which feature some great works and can help transport the reader into the fictional world of their book.
A Blanket
