The Best Gifts for Book Lovers (2025): E-Readers, Cozy Accessories, Book Sets

If they have an e-reader but want the option to use color, the Kobo Libra Color is the best option. It allows them to use a range of colors while reading, and you can add a pen to turn it into a digital notebook. It has page-turn buttons, which are nice and you won’t find them on the Kindle.

This e-reader from Kobo is the same price as the Kindle Paperwhite, but it comes with a color display. It’s smaller at 6 inches than the basic Kindle, and I love how lightweight it is. It’s a great color e-reader on a budget if you don’t want the pen-and-notebook feature of the Libra.

If they don’t have a Kindle, the Paperwhite 12th edition is our favorite. It has a warm front light, great battery life, and comes in a fun pink color. Upgrade to Signature for an auto-adjustable light and more storage space (aka more books!).

The Kindle Scribe 2 is a great e-reader and digital notebook in one. It’s larger than the Libra, which makes it easier to write and draw on, but the downside is that it doesn’t have a color screen. There’s a color model coming out this month, so stay tuned to see if we recommend it in our Best Kindles guide.

PopSockets has a new range of Kindle cases that have a MagSafe ring, so you can easily place it on the PopSocket grip. The Curled Up With a Good Book design includes a matching pouch and grip that you can use together.

Not only does this handy case look beautiful, but the lines on the cover actually allow it to fold and support the Kobo while you read. Very useful! It comes in cute colors and is available for many Kobo devices, including the Clara and Libra.

This is my favorite PopGrip. It’s large enough that my small hands can comfortably reach it on the 7-inch Paperwhite and Colorsoft, and it’s nice to touch and look at.

These Strapsicle straps make it really easy to carry your e-reader. It’s easy to install, and I find that just using one of the two straps ensures it stays secure. The limited edition neon set is a lot of fun and worth shopping before it runs out.

This gentle book light from WithIt shines an individual light on each half of the book, and the soft arms are easy to move independently to perfectly point to each page. It has two brightness levels to click on.

Kobo has released its first-ever page-turning accessory, so you can tap to turn a page without lifting a finger. I’m glad to finally see a page turner made by an e-reader brand, instead of poor third-party options.

This stylish, oversized bag is convenient for bringing your Kindle and a few other essentials without being too bulky. GRS Certified Recycled Leather Exterior The recycled leather exterior has a sturdy yet soft feel.

This bag screams “I love books” in the best way possible. It is a great size with nice long straps that make it very comfortable to wear.

Strapsicle recently launched stickers with sweet and spicy packaging. It’s a nice sized set that can easily decorate many e-readers.

If they always enjoy a new read, ask them for a notebook to keep track of everything they’ve read and how they liked it.

I don’t like primary colors when I’m annotating my books. This pack is similar to but much larger than a set I found at my local Daiso store, and the pastel colors are much more pleasing to the eyes while marking up the pages of my book.

I love these highlighters for my paper planner, and they’re a great option for readers who like to highlight paragraphs. There is a highlighter and finisher for each color if they want to underline.

The label says it all. Give them a candle to alert everyone who is busy reading. I’ve tried all four scents you can choose from, and my favorites are the mimosa and white tea scents.

Help them block out the world while they read (or engage in immersive reading, where you listen to the audiobook while reading the actual book at the same time) with our favorite noise-cancelling headphones.

Give them a nice mug to stay hydrated with their favorite beverage while reading, whether it’s a nice cup of tea or a hot beverage.

They’ll need some hot water with their cup of tea, and this stylish electric kettle is stylish and affordable without slowing down in performance.

Give the gift of happy, comfortable feet with our favorite collection of men’s slippers. Our reviewer at WIRED says these slippers hold up well and have the classic Ugg interfacing, with a low back that makes them easy to slip on and off.

If there’s a book I want to get for my husband that he’s already read, it’s these beautiful illustrated editions of it Lord of the Rings, The hobbitAnd even The Silmarillion.

They may have been a One Piece fan for years. Maybe they became new fans after watching the Netflix series. You can start their collection from still-running manga or even give them a couple of starter volumes to get them hooked on the original.

If they are fans A court of thorns and rosesIt’s official: They’ll need to read Sarah J. Maas’ other series, Crescent Cityto keep up with what’s happening next time ACOTAR book. The first is my favorite.

This is a great series of books if you are shopping for an elementary reader or teen. The books have endured, with Bloom’s themes continuing to resonate years later.

If you know someone who has trouble sitting and reading, get them an Audible subscription so they can listen to books while they drive, do housework, exercise, and more.

Book of the Month is a subscription for the reader who loves physical books. Each month, there are five to seven titles to choose from that ship directly to their door (they can skip months if nothing catches their eye).

Adrienne So, a WIRED reviewer, has subscribed for years (on and off) to Parnassus Signed First Editions, from novelist Ann Patchett’s shop in Nashville, Tennessee. The books are mainly literary novels, with occasional realistic stories. Every book I’ve gotten has been an absolute buzz.
