11 Best Gift For Book Lovers

A top secret guide to our minds.

Jun 28, 2016

Do you have a book lover in your life who's special day is coming up? Or perhaps just a book lover whom you love enough to give presents even when they don't have a special day coming up? I can promise you that every book lover has fantasized about receiving the items on this list, so search no more!

1. A Good Book

Seriously. This may feel "too obvious" to be true but if you've watched "Beauty and the Beast," you'll remember that Belle was far happier when she saw Beast's huge library than when she saw Beast turn into a prince!

Picking the right book to gift doesn't have to be tiresome either. You can simply pick one from their endless 'to read' list. Or better yet, pick a book you know they would never pick themselves!

2. This Book Necklace

This may not give you the butterflies but as a book lover, I'm squealing just as I post these pictures. Trust me, they'll love it.

3. Book Ring

Jewellery is a good way to go!

4. Mac Book Case

Most of us book worms would rather be carrying a humongous book around than a silly yet necessary electronic device. I'm considering buying a Mac just to for these book cases!

5. Clever Bookmarks

Okay, this one is for the more seasoned gift givers. The bookmark has to be really clever. Either go for one that's literary themed like the one from "The Wizard of Oz." or go for extremely geeky aka cool ones like the bloody bookmark! No random paper bookmarks make the cut, sorry!

6. Paper Weights!

Firstly, no, paper weights are not the same thing as book marks. Secondly, look at how cute this glass transparent paper weight is!

7. Personalized Library Embosser

Not as functional as some of the others but just as beautiful!

8. Personal Library Kit

If you ever plan on lending books from them, gift them this kit first. Book are our sacred children, if we're lending it to you, it's real business.

9. Book Scented Candles

Still haven't figured out how this one works but old books smell like paradise so maybe the candle does, too?

10. Literary Tote Bags

Totes to carry all of our books, of course!

11. Automatic Reading Light

Legend has it that the lamp automatically switches off when a book is on top of it. If you give them the git of light, they are probably going to love you forever.

You don't need a special day to show that book lover that you love them! Gift them already!

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
