“I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of any thing than of a book! — When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.”
Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice
If you are looking for gifts for book lovers who always peering up from behind a book it’s hard to know exactly what to get them.
Book-lovers are pretty easy to shop for — all you really have to do is make contributions to their already-overflowing bookcases. But why stop there? This year, get creative with your gifts for literature-lovers and think outside the book box.
A book might an easy chose but do you have any idea what kind of books they enjoy? Do you know what they’ve already read? Rather than adding another book of questionable appeal to their exhaustive collection, why not think outside the box?
There are plenty of reading-adjacent gifts that will support their favorite pastime without burdening their shelves.
There are so many book-themed items they’ll love, and chances are they’ve already devoured the new novel you were thinking of gifting.
I’ve rounded up more than 20 ideas for the bookworm in your life. Just keep reading to shop our picks!
If you’re still shopping for gifts for your family and friends, don’t forget to check out Monodreame’s gift guide for 2020, where I round up the best gift ideas for dog lovers, parents, coffeeholic, harry potter fanatic, and everyone else on your list!
MUG
In every gift guide, I always try to include mugs or glasses, which I think people use a lot in their daily life.
TEE
I’ve collected so many tee graphics recently and here some of my favorites that would be awesome gifts for book lovers.
Bookmarks
Misc
What’s catching your eye in this list? Which one do you think will be the best gifts for book lovers?

I’m so glad you included bookmarks! I know a lot of people prefer digital books now but I am a physical book person and that means I need bookmarks and lots of them. I think the invisible bookshelves are so neat.
I prefer a physical book too 😀 means I need another bookshelf for them lol Thank you for reading x
The dumpling light is so so cute!! I love a good bookish tee! As a fellow reader, I would get everything xx
Thank you 😀
Love that smoko book light! Great suggestions
You have some great options here! The first idea that usually comes to mind for me is a mug for the same reason – it’s something that anyone could use. After all, who doesn’t love curling up with a good book and a cup of tea, coffee or hot chocolate?
I know right? 😀 I used to purchase personalized mugs for myself or as birthday gifts – especially with quotes or graphics that brighten up my eyes Oh, a book, laptop, and a cup of coffee are always perfect for me!
Seems like we had some similar ideas for our bookish gift guides! I like the different miscellaneous options you had here too!
I’ve read your bookish gift guides too and I love it! I’m a fan of mugs and love to collect graphic tee 😀
Really like the scarf and the bookmarks!! Great ideas!!
Thank you 😀
I know right? I’d like to have those kinds of tee haha Thank you for reading, Jaya x
Haha I am a bibliophile and I surely will share this list among my friends and family so that they know exactly what to gift me because they are tired to gifting me books lol
Awesome! Hope you get something (which is not books) this year 😀 Thank you for reading x
