As its name suggests, this e-reader comes in color! (Well, the ink does.) The design itself comes in two different shade options\u2014black or white\u2014and weighs less than half a pound. (I just got the white one.) In terms of what’s inside<\/em> the device, that’s completely up to the reader, thanks to its 16 GB storage. You can fill it with all your favorite e-books and audiobooks from the Kobo Store or loaned out directly from your local library via Libby (IYKYK).<\/p>\n

With as much traveling as I do and the number of books I read a month (usually around 15!), the lightweight, easily packable, and waterproof (!) e-reader will certainly come in clutch.<\/p>\n

Tablet Stand Pillow<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

If you’ve ever accidentally dropped your phone, Kobo, Kindle, or tablet onto your face mid-scroll while supine, may I introduce you to this hands-free and incredibly cozy pillow stand? It’ll hold your electronics in place with its rotating arm, while the middle cubby console will keep your emotional support water bottle and snacks steady\u2014leaving you empty-handed to do\u2026anything!<\/p>\n

Libro.fm Credit Bundles<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

As someone who has listened to up to 25 audiobooks in a month, having access to a subscription service, like Libro.fm, is a must. Not only will the monthly credits keep your giftee from spending extra on piecemeal audiobooks\u2014which can get costly real fast at $20 a pop\u2014but it’ll also keep them in the loop on all of the new releases ahead of launch.<\/p>\n

But what makes Libro.fm’s platform different than the rest is that when you create an account, you simultaneously select a local bookstore to support. So every credit used (or bought) will directly benefit both Libro.fm and<\/em> a neighborhood shop. How neat!<\/p>\n

You can shop credit bundles for your listener (starting at a two-pack, all the way up to a 24-pack), and when they run out, they can always scour the sales because Libro.fm often has deep discounts on trending books.<\/p>\n

For the Spicy<\/em> Audiobook Lover:<\/strong> Apple AirPods Max<\/h2>\n

Listen…no, literally<\/em> listen. I don’t want to be That Girl who hypes up every single Apple product, but the sound quality of AirPods Max headphones is actually very nice. If your book-loving giftee is as into audiobooks as much as I am, they’re going to want the best noise-canceling option on the market, to not only drown out ambient sound but to ensure no one would ever be able to audibly catch them listening to spicy audiobooks in the wild. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

Blind Date with a Book<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Feeling uninspired by your towering TBR? Let fate decide your next read with “Blind Date with a Book.” I love this gift’s concept because not only does it take the guesswork out of searching stacks and stacks of shelves for a great book, but the surprise element makes it fun for both the gifter and the giftee\u2014no one knows what’s been wrapped up until it’s opened! If you know your giftee’s preferred genre, you can select from a variety of options (romance, fantasy, thriller, etc.), share their Goodreads account, and\u2026voil\u00e0! A neatly packaged book, along with some cute extras, like stickers and bookmarks, will be sent straight to the reader recipient\u2014how fun!<\/p>\n

For the night owls, insomniacs, and readers who can’t bear to go to bed until the enemies-to-lovers book finally gets to the lovers<\/em> part of the story, this dimmable, rechargeable book light will keep your book (or e-reader!) illuminated without disturbing others. I’m partial to the green light, but if Brat Summer isn’t your vibe, you can choose from pink, purple, blue, or white colorways.<\/p>\n

Born to Read Books, Forced to Read Emails Sweatshirt<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Presented without comment. This crewneck, which comes in a variety of colors and sizes, speaks my language. I’ll be honest: If I could, I’d be reading right now. Or listening to an audiobook. (Okay, fine, maybe I am<\/em> currently listening to an audiobook, but that’s neither here nor there.) Since I can’t read and<\/em> work at the same time, I’ll just wear this sweatshirt in protest. Don’t get me wrong, I love my job. I just happen to love reading a little bit more. Gift this pullover to your book-loving friend who feels the same.<\/p>\n

For the Bed Rot-Loving Reader:<\/strong> Hantuswus Lazy Glasses<\/h2>\n

Are these quite possibly the most ridiculous things you’ve ever seen? Yes. Do I still want them? Double yes. As a cozy bed reader, I often jump into my books while I’m horizontal, which one, probably isn’t great for my neck and lower back, and two, means I have to hold my Kindle up or MacGyver a makeshift pillow prop to keep my e-reader upright (see above request for a tablet pillow). With these goofy glasses, I can lie completely flat while still being able to read and<\/em> maintain supreme comfort, thanks to the geniusness of their prism lenses.<\/p>\n

Magic Sprout Mini-Mushroom Bookmarks<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Polaroids, receipts, scraps of paper\u2014you name it, and I’ve probably used it as a makeshift bookmark at some point. And while random objects around my house certainly work great as page-holders in a pinch, nothing compares to the convenience and cuteness of these sprout- and mushroom-shaped bookmarks. Join me in stocking up on these teeny-tiny fawn and fungi friends, which make for the most adorable gift for the reader in your life.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
