Even if you’re not a bookworm yourself, you must know someone who is, right? Whether it’s a physical book, an ebook, or an audiobook, I always have something on the go. So I have a few book related items on my own (small) Christmas list this year. If you’re still looking for ideas for yourself or hunting for someone else, hopefully you’ll find something to suit from the items for book lovers I’ve put together below!
Being a bookworm myself, I’m glad the boys are just as into books as I am. Unlike their daddy, who has been reading the same book for a number of years!

A few years ago, I used to be really big on reading magazines.

I pick up the occasional supermarket magazine, but that’s mostly for the recipes; I end up ripping them out and storing them in a folder as whole magazines just take up too much space, don’t they? With Readly though, you have practically the whole magazine world, in your hands. The Ultimate Magazine Subscription Enjoy …
My husband is such a difficult person to buy presents for. He never really asks for anything (except a new car, but I can’t afford that), so I have to guess what he would like, and he usually ends up with lots of little bits. He doesn’t read (so not like me), so I don’t buy him books, but The Book Of Everyone is different. I think he will like this one and maybe, you know, actually read it…
