There is no doubt that one thing book lovers love most in this world is books, right? But we also love bookish themed things too! Besides, as tempting as it is to buy a book lover a book, finding one they definitely haven’t read can be a veritable minefield.
So, I had a nose around the internet and found some awesome gifts for book lovers that are not books. I’m quite proud of myself for resisting the temptation to by them for myself too. The only challenge left is to get my husband to see this without making the hint too obvious…
Anyway, here are some great gifts you can get the book lover in your life.
