Can you believe that Black Friday and Cyber Monday are a little over a week away? I can’t, this is so crazy to think that the year is already almost over! I figured now would be a better time than any to start (Dropping Hints) showing you all the best way to surprise your book loving friend or family member this holiday season.
Just a few reminders I do not own these pictures. Also I will post links to these items but I am not affiliated with amazon or any of the companies I get the links from. I just want to make it easy for everyone to track down these items. I suggest clicking on the Etsy links or small businesses before Amazon. Remember to try and shop small this year!

Gift Idea #1

TBR Cart and Cute Decals
I have been dying to get my hands on one of these carts! This probably at the top of my Christmas list this year. It is just so cute and practical that I think everyone needs one of these in their households.
The best part is the super cute decals you can buy for them! You can make these carts personal to you which I think makes this gift one of the best ones you could buy someone.
This is a great Etsy link for the cute picture above!
Book Carts are actually crafting carts but who said they had to be used for that purpose?
Gift Idea #2

Thumb Page Holders
I have had my eye on these page holders for a very long time! They can be resin or wood and come in so many cute designs! I highly suggest doing an Etsy search and find the best one for your bookish friend.
I think my personal favorites are the resin ones. I mean look at how cute that picture is! Every resin pour comes out different but it is also so easy to customize!



Gift Idea #3

Candles
I am obsessed with candles! I always have one burning in my house or at least a Scentsy going in my office while I work.
I know setting the ambiance of the room when you sit down to read makes or breaks a good reading session. In no particular order; find a comfy spot, get a glass of wine or your preferred beverage, grab a fluffy blanket, and of course light your favorite candle.
When I don’t have a good setting for my reading I get so distracted and my reading session honestly ends up pretty short. I will talk more about ambiance and comfort items a little later on in a different post. Also maybe I am just strange and most people could just sit straight down and read but I personally can’t. Even if you can read anywhere and anytime who doesn’t need a good smelling candle in their life?
Down below will be a link for an Etsy shop that I have seen everywhere for bookish scented candles. I have been dying to try these because I have heard so many wonderful things about their business. I will be putting my order in soon!

Gift Idea #4

Book Stamp/Embosser
Do you or your bookish friend have a book that you absolutely love and will never get rid of? Better yet, do you and your friends lend each other books? If so, this is the perfect gift!
With this stamp you will be able to always keep track of whose book is whose!
Etsy has hundreds of different stamps and embossers to choose from but this is one that I think is super cute! Remember these can be customized!
Gift Idea #5

Reading Pillow
I know that while I read it is very easy to get into an uncomfortable position and that can be one of my main reasons to stop reading for the night.
A reading pillow is a great way to stay comfortable and honestly can you ever have too many pillows?
I don’t have one of these yet and I am regretting it!
Gift Idea #6

Favorite Book Merch
Even if you know nothing about books I guarantee you know your best friends favorite book. They are probably constantly trying to get you to read this book, constantly talking about the book or they probably already have some of the merch related to their favorite book. Check out these super cute Esty shops Full of cute bookish merch!



Gift Idea #7

Book Scratch Off Poster
This is a super fun and interactive gift that will just keep giving for the rest of the year!
Being someone who can never decide on what book to read next, something like this would come in handy! I also really love surprises and scratching off things.
There are so many options out there for these but this is the one that caught my eye.
Gift Idea #8

Book Ends
Anyone who owns a book knows how hard it is too keep your books organized and looking pretty. I have books just stacked on top of each other on my dresser because my shelves are so full! Having some book ends would be a dream come true to anyone like me.



Gift Idea #9

Special Editions of Favorite Books
I love that there are so many different covers for books! I think most of them are so gorgeous. I know a lot of people who own three or four of their favorite book just to have a couple different covers. A lot of the limited or special release books come out for specific reasons like special anniversaries, so to someone who is a die hard fan of a book these are a big deal!
Gift Idea #10

Kindle Products
If you have a little bit of cash to burn and you are wanting to be the best gift giver this year, you can not go wrong in getting them a new Kindle product!
EReaders are such a popular item these days and I know how much I love my Kindle Paper White. I couldn’t imagine not having it.
Wrap Up
This Christmas, treat all your bookish loving friends and family to some of the best gifts out there! These are all in my opinion some of the best gifts you could receive this holiday season. I know a lot of these are at the top of my Wishlist! I hope you all enjoyed this list and I hope I was able to give you some good ideas.
