2020 Gift Guide For Bookworms and a Giveaway

I say this every year, but books really are the perfect present this year. It’s going to be a long winter in most cases, but we can make it feel a little shorter by supplying our favorite bookworms with books and goodies to help the days go by.

Books

50 Great American Places by Brent Glass - This is the perfect gift for any armchair historian who is planning their first post pandemic road trip. Written by a director emeritus of the National Museum of American History at the Smithsonian Institution, this book hits all the highlights of what a trip around the US should be.

Tomorrow Will Be Better by Betty Smith - A Tree Grows in Brooklyn is one of my very favorite books ever since I read the Christmas scene in my English text book in 9th grade. I’ve always wanted to read this book too, but have never been able to find a copy. I yelled with joy when I found out it’s being re-released. This will definitely be a gift I buy myself this year.

Devotions by Mary Oliver - This is a wonderful book of poems for afternoons spent dreaming.

11/22/63 by Stephen King - The perfect gift for a long winter’s day. This book is for anyone who loves time travel and history. If you think all Stephen King is all gore and horror think again.

Other Gifts For Bookworms

Audiobook Subscriptions - So this is technically a book, but audiobook subscriptions are a gift I give often. Libro.fm is a great choice because some of the proceeds go to local bookstores, but audible.com also works.

Tea and books also go together. My favorite is Irish breakfast from Tea Dude on Etsy.

Turning pages all day makes a bookworm’s hands dry. This lemon scented hand cream from JR Watkins is my favorite.

And of course everyone loves to take a bath with a book. There’s some recipes for homemade bath salts here.
