The Stacks 2022 Gift Guide for the Book Lovers in Your Life
So I’m sharing another gift guide for you this year. Last year we focused all on non-book gifts for the book lovers in your life, and we’ll mostly stay focused there, however this year we’re talking about the different types of readers you may know. I am including a few actual books *gasp* and some things that I have loved this year that maybe aren’t so much in the book world, but are just great gifts. If you want all of the book recs be sure to check our my shop over on bookshop.org, it has books I love, books my kids love, and even books I’m looking forward to reading.
If you’re reading on the go, you need a Kindle, duh.

You can’t read on the go without a book mark, and this wooden Toni Morrison one is perfection.
