Gifts for Book Lovers, Writers, & Editors: Part 7
I love finding book- and writing-related gifts for book lovers, writers, editors. It's such fun! And I enjoy them myself. I hope you'll find some of these items appealing for the book lover in your life.
Of course, one of my favorite gifts to receive (or give) is a bookstore gift card. And it's super easy to buy gift cards online, especially if your book lover has a Kindle Amazon Gift Cards or a Nook (B&N Gift Card).
But there's so much else that is appealing for book lovers! Check out these finds:
Rory's Story Cubes
This looks like a fun writing game to play, as well as a possible tool for writers who are stuck. "Rory's Story Cubes is a pocket-sized creative story generator, providing hours of imaginative play for all ages."
Amazon, $6.71
BananaGrams
If you haven't tried BananaGrams yet, and you love word games, check it out! It's a lot of fun.
Amazon, $13.50
Stack of Books Book lover Necklace
This looks beautiful to me.
Etsy, $25
Book Lover's Calendar for 2012
Amazon, $12.99
Mary Engelbreit's Book Lover Bulletin Board Display Set
Amazon, $9.41
These are supposed to be for teachers, but I personally love the middle image (A Book Is a Present You Can Open Again and Again) so much that I'd buy this set for myself.
Library Cushion
Literary Gift Company, 14.95 pounds, about $23.96 US. A bit expensive, but will appeal to some book lovers.
Literary Rubber Duck
I think this little book loving rubber duckie is so cute I had to include it. It would be a nice gift for a child that loves books.
Literary Gift Company, 3.95 pounds, about $6.33 US
Big Boogle

I absolutely love Boggle–it's one of my favorite words games; maybe THE favorite. So I'm excited to see that there's now Big Boggle, with 5 x 5 cubes rather than 4 x 4. More words, longer words, more fun!
Amazon, $13.75
Book Lover Bottle Cap Magnets
Etsy, $6.95
Autumn Leaf-It Sticky Notes
These are absolutely beautiful bookmarks, or ways to mark passages or pages you love.
Literary Gift Company, 4.95 pounds, about $7.93 US
Kindle Case Made from a real book
I think this is both really neat (aesthetically pleasing and a neat book-lover tie-in) and also almost ironic–a physical book housing a bunch of electronic ones). I love it!
Etsy, $20.
Stacked Book Bench Table

Amazon, $80
Virginia Woolf typewriter pin
Probably more for writers and editors than book lovers, I love this Virginia Woolf typewriter pin. Books Are the Mirrors of the Soul
