Gifts for a Girlfriend Who Loves Reading
If your girlfriend always has a book on the go, choosing a thoughtful present may be harder than it sounds. She may already own the latest bestseller, and there's a good chance she's read the novel you were about to buy.
Think about the books she talks about. Is she always looking for a new thriller? Does she devour romantic fiction? Or is she happiest settling down with a book and a cup of tea? Those details are much more useful than a generic list of presents.
A book subscription for a girlfriend who reads constantly
A book subscription is a lovely option if she gets through books faster than you can keep track of them. It's especially useful if you know her preferred genres but aren't confident you know what's already on her shelves. At The Book Resort, we select books with readers' preferences in mind and pair them with treats and other little gifts.
A book hamper for a cosy night in
If she's happiest curled up with a good story, consider a book gift hamper. She gets a book to settle into and a few treats to enjoy while she's reading. It's an easy way to make an ordinary evening feel a bit special.
A personalised hamper that shows you know her
You may know her favourite chocolate, scents and little comforts better than anyone. Choose the contents yourself with a create-your-own gift hamper, rather than buying a generic assortment she'd never pick herself.
What if you don't know what she's already read?
Pay attention to the authors and genres she enjoys. If you're unsure, don't guess from a bestseller list alone. Our guide to gifts for someone who reads a lot tackles the duplicate-book problem.
Birthday, anniversary or just because?
For a birthday, a beautifully presented hamper gives her something to open and enjoy. For an anniversary, a longer subscription can be a meaningful way to mark the occasion. And you don't always need an occasion: an unexpected reading gift can be just as thoughtful.
A few ideas you might like
If she's already got a towering to-be-read pile, a hamper with her favourite treats might be a better bet than another novel. If she loves the surprise of new books, the subscription could be the winner. You can have a look at our With Love Hamper, browse our gift hampers or explore book subscriptions.
