Top 10 Gift Ideas for Book Lovers

Stuck for a Valentine’s Gift for the book lover in your life? Fear not. We are here to help you with such a predicament. We have compiled a list of great gift ideas for literature lovers and fiction fanatics to send the sparks flying this Valentine’s day.

Check out the list below to see if any of these take your fancy!

1. Snood Blanket

The epitome of comfort. Treat your partner to a jumper-blanket to curl up in with a good book and an even better brew. Perfect for the cold nights in, snuggled up on the sofa in front of the fire, this gift is an instant winner for anyone that likes a bit of comfort.

2. Chocolate

Of course, chocolate is going to be on the list. This delightful, melt-in-your-mouth substance is never going to disappoint. If you haven’t experienced a relaxed read complimented by some delicious chocolate, then you haven’t experienced true luxury (in our opinion anyway).

3. Book-Scented Candle

Okay, so this one may sound a bit weird, but we would highly recommend book scented candles. Before you judge, have you ever got a book and given it a good sniff? If you have, you will know that it is a smell like no other, a smell that will take you straight back to the fondest of your memories getting lost in a book.

4. Kindle

Simple, what can be better for a book lover than another platform in which to pursue their passion? This entry may be a little pricier, but it is bound to kindle the sparks this Valentine’s Day. And for an extra flare, try uploading a couple of their favourite works to add little personal touch.

5. Giant Wine Glass

Let’s be honest, who doesn’t enjoy a good glass of Shiraz with a book. And wouldn’t it just be magnificent if you didn’t even have to put your book down to go and refill your glass when you finish it? Until recently we thought that this phenomenon was a myth but believe us, wine glasses that can fit an entire bottle of wine in are very real.

6. Favourite Book from their Childhood

This idea may take a touch of investigation and no short measure of subtlety on your part. But, if you know, or can find out the name of your partners favourite book, then copy of that book can make a lovely gift. And if you can get your hands on a limited edition or a signed copy, then the gift will be that much more special.

7. Engraved Jewellery

Jewellery is always a winner for your partner, giving them a gift that will last, will always hold a greater personal value to it, more than a box of chocolate or a book scented candle. You could even go to the extent of engraving the jewellery with a quote from their favourite book or author.

8. Customised Clothes

In a similar vein as the engraved jewellery, why not get your creative spark on and create some of your own customised clothing. There are many methods of turning clothing into one-of-a-kind spectacles. Embossing a T-shirt, hat or even shoes with a line from their favourite book is easy and will show the real thought that you have put into the gift. If you are concerned about messing it up, there are plenty of sites out there that offer other ways to customise clothing for you.

9. Custom Bookmark

Do you want to give your partner something to remind them of you every time they pick up their book? By giving them a homemade bookmark, you can do just that. An extremely easy and quick gift idea that will more than pack a punch in sentimental value.

10. Bathtub Caddy

A slight curve ball with this last entry, we have talked about reclining on the sofa with a book, but have you ever experienced relaxing in a hot bath with a novel? If not, you must take our word for it when we say it’s truly divine. And, to add to the luxury, why not treat your partner to a stylish bathtub caddy to offer further pampering with ample space for a glass of wine and a sweet-smelling candle.

So that’s it for our Valentines gift recommendations for the book lover in your life, we hope you can take inspiration from this and really knock the romance out of the park this year.
