Gifts for Book Lovers That Aren't Books
Buying books for a book lover is risky: they've probably read it, or own it, or have a 40-book to-read pile already.
So get them things that make reading better instead.

Before you buy
Ask if they read paper books or an e-reader. Page holders and bookends are for paper readers. Lights and pillows work for both.
A book nook makes a great group gift you build together on a cozy night.
