A book is one of the best gifts that you can give, but there’s a lot more to reading that just books themselves. What if the friend you are buying a gift for wants to read while their partner is sleeping? Perhaps inspiration might strike while they are reading, and they might need somewhere to write down their thoughts.
There are so many gifts that are great for book lovers, that aren’t just books, and can solve these problems. Here are 7 great gift ideas for a friend who loves books.

If your book-loving friend prefers something more classic than a book trolley, then buying them a bookshelf can be a good gift. Buying your friend a bookshelf doesn’t have to mean your gift is boring though; it doesn’t have to be a bland bookshelf relegated to the corner of a room.
This HOOBRO Tree Bookshelf can put books to the front-and-centre of a room. The wooden shelves will give the room a rustic feel, while its modern design will keep your friend’s house feeling contemporary.
如果你的朋友喜欢比手推车更经典的东西，那么给他们买一个书架吧。一个书架并不意味着无聊；它不是一个在角落里的乏味的书架。
使用这款HOOBRO Tree书架，可以将书摆放在房间的正面和中央。木制书架会给房间一种乡村的感觉，而它的现代设计会使房子感觉很现代.

Bookmarks allow you to save your page without creasing it. Credit: Amazon
A bookmark is an absolute essential for any reader. Without a bookmark, we are forced to crease the corner of a page which can ruin the book’s appearance.
The bookmarks in this pack of 12 are all magnetic, allowing you to clip them onto a page without worrying they will get lost or crease the page. They also come in a range of muted, pastel colours which means they be paired with any book.
书签对任何读者来说都是绝对必要的。没有书签，我们不得不折起书页的一角，这会破坏书的外观。
这包12个书签都是带磁性的，你可以把它们夹在书页上，不用担心丢失或弄皱书页。它们还有一系列柔和的颜色，可以与任何颜色的书相搭配。
