  35. Love these, but especially the last one!!

    My favorite bookish gift I have given is an usual one -- a book chair/stand I was given as a graduation present. It honestly was the most useful gift ever (especially in university) & I loved it. I used it so often. Unfortunately, while studying abroad it was stolen from my suitcase & I'm looking to find another one :(

  36. Love this post! I'm so forwarding it to my husband :)

  43. Yeah, so these are basically the cutest things ever. I adore Etsy, but sometimes get lost when trying to find fun bookish stuff, so thank you so much for this post! I think I might buy the "boys are better in books" pin.

  46. Love this post! Seriously, you can't go wrong with book related merchandise - at least if you're considering buying me a gift ;). Love that last Lemony Snicket necklace. I also loved those Jane Austen scarves you had for Christmas. It's still cold here so they would make great Valentines Day gifts.
