With the holiday season fast approaching, many of us are still scrambling to get our ducks in a row and get all the gifts we need for friends and family. And chances are, even if you don't celebrate anything at this time of year, you're going to need to get a gift for someone at some point in the near future. Or hey, maybe you're just looking to #treatyoself. With that in mind, I've created a (hopefully) handy guide for those looking to get something unique for their favorite book lovers who might not be sure where to start. It's by no means extensive, but it contains some of my favorite items and shops that I've collected over my ridiculously nerdy lifetime.

I have this problem where I keep buying mugs en masse when I actually only need one or two. But of the bunch, this one is probably my personal favorite. The machine-washable chalk mug pictured above is the perfect way to show everyone what's you're reading obsession at the moment, since for some reason people get annoyed if you just go up to them and start gushing nonstop in person.

6. Quotable Throw Pillows
Nothing's better than getting cozy with a book you love. Now you can cuddle up with a pillow that that reflects this universal truth.

I'm obsessed with these stunning handmade literary pins. Each one is only an inch tall, but they do a wonderful job of capturing the essence of their respective books.
