In need of a last minute gift idea but want to make it something DIY and personal? One of the best gift ideas for book lovers we’ve ever come across is building them their very own Little Free Library! Sure, it’d be helpful if they were living somewhere relatively permanent (not a university dorm, for instance), but any bookworm would be willing to make this work! Extra points if you get something relating to your recipient’s favorite book! You can find these sorts of pieces all over the place (Hot Topic, Barnes & Noble, Target, etc.) so as long as you know your book lover’s tastes well enough, you should have no problem finding something they’d like. Help the book lover in your love wear their love for literature on their shirt collars (as in the case of these cute snitch collar pins), head, or anywhere else they want by gifting them some pretty bookish pieces for their wardrobes. The possibilities are really endless here. So anything you can do to help us achieve this dream would be greatly appreciated.ĭIY library gift ideas include a personal library kit (complete with a date stamper and little cards), an embosser tool or stamp that allows your favorite bookworm to “brand” their books, classy and/or fun book ends, floating bookshelves, and printable literary word art from Etsy that you can frame nicely as a library centerpiece. We also all have dreams of having our own libraries a la Beauty and the Beast. We love the smell of library books and getting lost among the stacks and just being surrounded by as many books as possible. Items to help them create their own libraryīook lovers love libraries. Warm and fuzzy socks, tin of herbal tea, honey spoons, bookish-themed candles (if you can find them in a local shop), mini reading lights, nice-smelling lotion… Any one of these items (or a care package including all of these items) would make for a great gift. So, if you don’t want to risk buying novels as last-minute gifts for book lovers, buy them little gifts that they can use while reading. We’re the “curl up in a warm blanket and fuzzy socks with a good book and mug of tea” type. If there’s one thing you should know about book lovers, it’s that we like great books almost as much as we love laughing about explicitly terrible ones. The bargain bins/tables/carts at stores like Barnes & Noble are the perfect place to find books that you never would’ve thought existed. You could also go in the opposite direction with buying books as last-minute gifts for book lovers and get them the most ridiculous book you’ve ever seen. The funniest item you can find in Barnes & Noble’s bargain books section Include a note about what makes this book so special to you for an added touch. You’re sharing something that you love and really enjoyed with someone you care for. Now, we don’t advise giving it to them if you absolutely know it’s something they won’t want to read or if you intend to constantly hound them about if they’ve read it yet (and if they liked it), but it’s the thought that counts. Make physical (or digital) book-giving even more personal by gifting a copy of your own personal favorite book.
