Fun Gifts For Readers and Writers
I'm an avid reader and I do enjoy writing. And as much as I am touched by receiving a new writing journal with a fancy pen, I've stumbled across many an item on Amazon that strikes my reading/writing fancy. And maybe they'll strike yours too, whether it's a gift to yourself, or for a loved one who enjoys reading and writing.

Gifts for Readers
Book Lover's Soy Candle
Not only would this make a cool gift, but factor in that so many Kindle/Nook users complain that they miss the smell of books, and this just solves all their problems! They have a variety of scents, such as Old Books, Rainy Day Reads, Sherlock's Study, and Bookstore.
Bookish T-Shirts
There are several t-shirts I've stumbled across that I would love to add to my wardrobe one day. Some of my personal favorites include:
- Reading is My Jam
- I'm Not Addicted to Reading, I Can Stop As Soon As I Finish This Book
- Don't Judge a Book By Its Movie
- Happiness is a Cup of Coffee and a Good Book
NovelTeas
Some readers are coffee lovers, but for those who love tea, these make a perfect gift for a reading fan! Comes with a fun book tin they can keep forever. You can buy in a gift set, or individual flavors, which include Pride and Peppermint, Oliver Lemon Twist, War and Peach, and Matcha Ado About Nothing
Once Upon A Time Necklace
Cute, fun, and stylish necklace for any book lover who wants to wear a little bling.
Personal Library Kit
How fun is this for your own library? Plus, it might mean you'd actually get a book back that you loaned to a friend, because they just might remember who they borrowed it from. ;)
Tea/Coffee Mug Warmer
A great way to keep your tea or coffee warm while you're reading (or writing!) It automatically turns on when it feels the weight of your cup, and then turns off when you take the cup off.
Gifts for Writers
Writer's Block Journal
Writers love journals, and they complain about having writer's block. Why not get them a writer's block journal to help them unlock that writer's block?
Typewriter Pencil Holder
I think is the greatest pen/pencil holder I've ever seen! Great for any writer to store their writing utensils and place proudly on their writing desk.
Writer's Clock
I think every writer can relate to these times. Coffee? Check. Writing? Check. Feeling like giving up. Yep. More coffee--why yes please.
I'm a Writer What's Your Superpower? Coffee Mug
Whether they're drinking hot tea or coffee, this mug is a fun and inspirational way to let everyone know they are a writer, and yes, writing is indeed a superpower.
Aquanotes Waterproof Note Pad
Because EVERYONE knows the most brilliant ideas always comes to you when you're in the shower. (Or when you're driving, but that's another story.) Every writer needs a good waterproof note pad. :)
Writing T-Shirts
So many shirts about writing, the sky is really the limit here, but my personal favorites are
Books about writing
You can never go wrong with a good book about writing! There are so many great books about writing, but these four are my favorites:
- On Writing by Stephen King
- Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott
- You Are a Writer by Jeff Goins
- The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron
I hope that helped you get some ideas of a novel gift (see what I did there?) for a reader or writer in your life.
Which gift idea is your favorite?
