13 Easy Christmas Gifts For The Bookworm In Your Life Who Already Has ALL The Books

The holidays are around the corner and you're probably struggling to figure out what to gift your quirky, book-worm friend. Well, if you are, then here is a list of the best ideas any book nerd would love!

Prettier copies of books they already own.

Book worms love pretty covers. Even if we have three copies of them, it doesn't matter. We will always appreciate a new, prettier copy of books we already own. Explore book copies with pretty covers on Etsy.

Book sets with matching covers.

Even more than pretty covers, book worms love sets of books that all match! It could be me, but I hate having a series of books when covers don't match. My friends hear about this all the time!

Literature T-Shirts

Even though I don't own one, I would DIE for a T-shirt that reps my favorite authors or has witty literature phrases on it. Yes, I spend way too much time at Books a Million. Amazon has a bunch to choose from.

We all know bookworms love bookstores, but perhaps your bookworm is picky. Nothing is more fun to a bookworm than getting to go to their favorite bookstores and browsing the extensive collection. And if it's a local store it's even better. Shop local!

Jewelry inspired by their favorite books

Perhaps you know all of your bookworm's favorite books, but you're not sure if they have space or want more copies. Maybe they love jewelry. On a lot of Etsy shops you can find jewelry inspired by different novels. For example, I have a necklace with a tiny "Pride and Prejudice" book as the charm.

Listen, we like to have our books on our person at all times. You can find tons of canvas bags online or in bookstores that would make any book worm happy. Or perhaps if you're feeling generous, you could find a messenger bag or even a Kanken! All of these would be great for helping us carry our precious cargo in.

JOURNALS!

Typically, a reader is a writer, and writers love journals. You can find journals anywhere, and the prettier the better. I personally crave to own a leather-bound journal with a beautiful imprint on the front and a leather tie to wrap it in. Ahhh, sweet, blank paper to hoard.

A jar of literature

Low on cash? Get creative! Any sentimental book worm would love this idea! Take a tall jar and fill it with 365 days of literature. You could find funny literature memes or you could even fill it with writing prompts! You would just need to compile the 365 things, print them out, then put them in the jar. Wha-la! 365 days of literature for your book worm!

A game night

Now, if you are up to possibly being obliterated in a game of Scrabble or completely confused by Bards Dispense Profanity, then this idea is for you. You could by a game, like the ones mentioned above, along with a couple of quirky literature-inspired mugs, and some hot chocolate, then place it in a bag and give it to your bookworm! This offers them a game they will definitely love and you can spend some quality time with them!

Magnetic poetry set

At Barnes and Noble, you can find different versions of magnetic poetry sets. I personally want to own the Pride and Prejudice set. These are great for any bookworms, but specifically for the bookworms in college. They can decorate their mini-fridges with cute poems!

Author Dolls!

The Unemployed Philosophers Guild on Amazon has a line of “Little Thinker" dolls. This line includes dolls for authors like Edgar Allan Poe and Jane Austen. These would be a great gift for your book worm friends that enjoy a little cozy friend!

Does your book worm enjoy a cheeky cuppa? There are tons of different lines of tea inspired by books and authors! There are even some you can find in bookstores like Books a Million and Barnes and Noble.

Personal Library Kit

If your book worm enjoys lending out their precious babies, perhaps gifting them a library kit would be useful. This way they can keep track of who is borrowing their books!

The holidays are a stressful time, but your book worm friends are the easiest to shop for! You just have to think a bit out of the box!

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
