Book Lover Gifts for Readers and Literature Fans

For readers and word people

Book lover gifts do not have to be another novel they may already own. This guide covers reading accessories, journals, writing gifts, bookish keepsakes, cosy reading-corner ideas and thoughtful presents for people who like stories, notebooks, beautiful pages and quiet time with words.

Books and bookish keepsakes

A novel chosen around their reading taste, a personalised reading keepsake or something literary to display: these ideas give book lovers different ways to enjoy their interest.

Young readers

A story with their own name in it gives a child a lovely reason to turn the next page; a cloth book suits shared play at its marked age. For a young reader who prefers digital books, choose a tablet around their age, the family’s rules and the reading app they use. A general tablet is not a dedicated children’s device or a subscription to books.

Cosy reading time

Comfortable extras for people whose ideal evening involves a hot drink, soft lighting and an excuse to stay with the next chapter.

Story-led creativity

Creative gifts for readers who also like making, colouring, mapping memories or turning ideas into something physical. For a reader who also sketches digitally, a screenless pen pad works with their compatible computer and art software. Allow for driver setup, with adult support for younger artists where needed.
