If you’ve got big readers in your life with an overflowing library, it may seem that the #1 gift you can give is more books, but… book selection isn’t always easy and gift certificates can be a tiny bit impersonal even if it’s deeply appreciated.
To assemble the ultimate gift for the book-lovers you love, grab an amazing book or gift certificate to a bookshop, then pull together some goodies to add to your gift that will make it extremely memorable. While you’re at it, you may want to grab two of each gift to set up your own meditative reading space.
