Five Star Gift Ideas

If your grandma is an avid reader of classic literature, there are a few different gift options that you might consider:

1. A boxed set of classic novels: There are many boxed sets of classic novels available, from publishers like Penguin Classics, Everyman's Library, and Oxford World's Classics. These sets often include a range of different books, like "Pride and Prejudice," "Wuthering Heights," "Jane Eyre," and "The Great Gatsby." Pick a set that matches your grandma's interests and tastes, and she'll have hours of reading material to keep her busy.

2. A signed book or special edition: If your grandma has a favorite classic author or book, consider finding a signed copy or a special edition. Check out used bookstores or online marketplaces like eBay or AbeBooks to see if you can find a signed copy of a classic novel. Alternatively, many publishers release special editions of classic books, with beautiful covers or additional commentary that your grandma might enjoy.

3. A literary tour or experience: If your grandma loves classic literature and travel, consider booking her a literary tour or experience. Many companies offer tours of famous authors' homes and haunts, like Jane Austen's house or the Bronte sisters' museum. You might also consider booking a weekend or night away at a hotel with a literary theme, like the Library Hotel in New York or the Sylvia Beach Hotel in Oregon.

4. A personalized reading list: If your grandma has read a lot of classic literature, she might be interested in discovering new authors or books she hasn't encountered before. Create a personalized reading list for her, based on her interests and tastes. Include books that you have read and loved, or that you think she might enjoy based on her favorite authors or genres.

5. A literary-themed accessory: Finally, if your grandma already has a lot of books or doesn't have the time or inclination to travel, consider gifting her a literary-themed accessory. You might find a scarf or tote bag featuring her favorite author's quotes, for example, or a set of book-themed coasters or bookmarks. These small gifts can be a nice reminder of her love of classic literature, and can be used and enjoyed every day.

Or you can get her a star map with an important date you share.
