Gift Ideas for Bookaholics

Buying a book to book nerds is quite a cliché now that you can purchase from a range of personalised products

 

A bunch of cutesy yet useful gift ideas for the bookworms.

 

Glow-in-the-dark Bookmarks: Metal bookmarks are a saviour thanks to their sturdy, elegant and versatile designs. Personalised bookmarks are a relevant gift idea for them peeps who resort to curl the ends of books or use weird, unthinkable objects (perhaps another book!) as bookmarks.

 

Book Keychains: Book-shaped keychains are enormous fun and make for both a formal and fun gift. Since keys mostly always jingle in our pockets, they make an intensely personal gift item. From colleague to BFF, you can never go wrong with this one! 

 

Library Kit: People who often lose track of books after lending deserve a library kit to on-spot jot down whom they are lending books and on which dateThe kits come with stacks of checkout cards, date stamps and other essentials. Also, as a thoughtful gift idea, this kit might plant the practical idea of recordkeeping into their wandering minds!

 

Badges:  Badges are generally designed in a minimalist style that speaks volumes about the various eccentrics of bookish pals. Often you will find pencils sketches hurriedly scrawled on these badges or perhaps a quirky line like “Just One More Chapter!!” Only your friends will understand the irony.

 

Page Spreader: Also known as thumb book holders, page spreaders are a beauty pretty convenient to keep a book from closing in—a terrible challenge especially when you are reading from middle-pages onward of a horrendously thick, fat book.

 

Book Reading Log: A reading journal will help book nerds to write their latest reads and calculate how many books they have read last year or month. Every booklover’s go-to chronicle, the record allows plenty of reflection to plan and improve happy reading hours!

 

Book Reading Pillow: The pillows have a carved section to hold the book upright just at the right angle without any external support. Handy for your bookaholic friends who have a penchant for reading books for hours on end.

 

Book Locket: Typically a little book pendant has tiny, miniscule pages glued inside the outer covers and a chain attached! Funky yet pretty, these necklaces are paired with different outfits to nail a personal style statement. You may scribble personal messages or theme the pendants. These accessories are found in different shapes and colours—and can sport a look of old, worn-out journal to Victorian classics.
