I really want to post more blogposts this month, to kind of do my own Blogmas. I could never really attempt Blogmas because I simply do not have the time and if I would post everyday this month I would not have any ideas left for 2017!
In this post I'd like to share a few book related gift ideas with you. I love reading and I honestly think books, especially coffee table books make great Christmas gifts! Personally I would love to give and receive all these gifts!
As there are so many books and book related things out there, I picked out 10 gifts that basically represent the general idea.
1. There are quite a few books out there which are great for people who love creating writing. Maybe they are doing a course on it, or it is just a hobby, either way these kinds of books would be perfect for them. These books will often offer topics or certain situations to inspire people and get them thinking (What would a character do when they are in this kind of situation?) This particular book gives the reader 5 minute exercises which will really develop them as a writer and these excercises could help them when they are stuck for ideas!
The Five-Minute Writer by Marget Geraghty.
2. There are many books on mindfulness out there and I would definitely call some of them coffee table books. If you know someone who could do with a bit of insight on how to relax and destress this book would make a perfect gift for them! I know I would happily receive books on this topic! :)
The Little Book of Midfulness by Dr Patrizia Collard
3. This is a perfect gift for book lovers that isn't a book! You can find many of these 'book' bags on the site that I will link below. Personally I absolutely love the classics bag range from Penguin and these are of course a well fitted gift for people who love to read classics!
4. If you know someone who has an absolute favourite book, you might want to have a look whether there are different covers for that book. I know Penguin do some lovely covers for some of the classics. Books with gorgeous covers are perfect to put on display!
5. Moving on to another book related gift! Mugs! Who doesn't like a nice mug? On the Literary Gift Company site you can also find Penguin classics mug, but you can also find loads of other mugs related to books! You could make a cute little hamper including a mug, a book and maybe a pack of biscuits!
6. Ahhh coffee table books! I think they make an amazing gift. There are so many out there so I'm sure you will find the right one for someone. As an example I picked a book that I would love to receive and have a good look through. I think the photo on the cover says it all!
7. Another book that could class as a coffee table book, but also a book that could be very useful to someone is this book. There are so many books that will be useful to someone because of their hobby. This one in particular will make a good present for someone who loves drawing or wants to improve their drawing skills.
8. 'Milk and Honey is a collection of poetry and prose about survival.' I've seen this book circling around the internet quite a lot recently.
Personally I am not mad keen on poetry but lately I have started to appreciate it a bit more and I have gotten more interested in it so I would love to get this book. If you know someone who is into poetry or maybe just getting into it this will probably make a very good gift!
Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur
9. Is that another coffee table book? Yes! I came across this book in a gift guide this morning and I had to add it to my own one! This is a book full of words that have no direct translation in English. I absolutely love the cover and it has loads of drawings in it.
Lost in translation by Ella Frances Sanders
10. Last but not least I thought I'd add a 'proper reading' book that isn't a classic. If you know what kind of genre a person is into it can be fairly easy to find a book that they will like. Even though I know it isn't always that easy especially when a person already has loads of books but maybe you can gift a person with a fairly new book. Another really nice idea is gift someone a book that you personally absolutely love! I put The Perks Of Being A Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky in the collage as that book is one of my asbolute favourite books!
- Another gift idea is giving someone a book that's been made into a film and also give them the film on dvd! I think that would make a really nice set.
I really hope you found some inspiration for book related presents!
Thank you so much for reading!
Love,
xoxo
