Jackie and I have been very happy members of The Book of the Month Club for more than 6 years. This club allows you to choose a new, hardback book each month often before the release date. If no books interest you, you can skip a month.  Or you can buy multiple books with each additional book for only $10.99.

Book pushers like me are constantly lending out our own beloved tomes – the problem is…I can never remember to who I lent my books!

4. Library Embossers

What book lover doesn’t want the luxe feel of a home library? I’ve been dreaming about my own library since viewing Beauty & The Beast for the first time. These embossers let you feel like a true book collector even if you only have room for a shelf’s worth of favorites.

7. Book Sleeve

Protecting books is a key priority for most book lovers. A nice book sleeve is a perfect solution for protecting your reading material while transporting it around in your purse. We have seen firsthand the emotional havoc that can be caused by a stray cup of coffee. A few book sleeves make a perfect gift for any book lover.

Every bookworm has been in a situation where a book is just too good to put down. It can lead to staying up WAY too late. The result? Puffy, tired eyes like you wouldn’t believe.

It shocks my system, drains my lymphatic system, and instantly de-puff. Bonus – It’s under $10!
