Buying a gift for a book lover can either be really easy or super difficult depending on your budget (and how many books they already own). It can be hard to know what books like already own, what books they’ve already read, what genre they like and don’t like, etc. If you are looking for an affordable gift to get a book lover and you don’t want to get them a gift (because lets face it, that isn’t always easy or affordable) you’ve come to the right place! Here are 10 super cute and practical gifts for book lovers that cost less than $30 (*at least at the time of making this post*).

  1. Automatic bookmark- This makes a great stocking stuffer! This is a bookmark that you clip to the back of your book and place the flap on the page you are on so that when you turn the page, the bookmark follows along with you. This is perfect for someone who like to read in bed and may fall asleep and lose their place in their book. It is also perfect for toddler moms whose toddlers might pull the bookmark out of their book (speaking from experience as a toddler mom…)

  2. Booklight- Again, this is a great stocking stuffer idea especially for people who like to read in bed.

  3. Book Sleeve- This is a fun idea for people who like to take their books with them. This book sleeve has tons of fun prints to choose from so you can find one that really fits their personality!

  4. Canvas Tote Bag- You can never go wrong with a tote bag for anyone! This one is so cute and fits with the reading theme!

  5. Resin Page Holder- This is another great stocking stuffer idea. It is a super cute way to prevent those hand cramps you get from holding your book open for long periods of time.

  6. Reading Journal- This is a great gift for someone who reads a lot. It allows them to log the books they’ve read, rate them, list the books they want to read, and more!

  7. Glass Cup- This is another great universal gift that works for anyone, but this one specifically fits along with the book theme!

  8. Book Themed Candle- A candle is another great general gift idea, but getting one of their favorite book character is so fun! The one I’ve linked is one I’ve personally purchased that smells AMAZING!

  9. Book Flower Vase- These are so simple, but so beautiful! You can get clear glass ones or ceramic ones with more color.

  10. Customized Book Stamp- This is a fun gift for someone who has so many books they might as well be a library! It is an especially great gift if they frequently let people borrow their books, that way they have proof that the book belongs to them.

I hope this gave you a few ideas and relieved some of your gift buying stress! Remember, it’s not about how much you money you put into a gift, it’s about how much thought you put into it!
