Five Star Gift Ideas

For your son, who enjoys attending book club meetings, there are several thoughtful and meaningful gift options that could enhance his reading experience and celebrate his love for literature. Here are a few ideas to consider:

1. Personal Library Kit: Help your son keep track of his books and lend them out in style with a personal library kit. This kit typically includes custom bookplates, date stamps, and a handy checkout system. It will not only provide a sense of organization but also add a touch of nostalgia to his reading treasure trove.

2. Literary-themed Subscription Box: Surprise your son with a monthly subscription box that caters to book lovers. These boxes often incorporate a carefully curated selection of books, bookish items, and related accessories. Some subscription boxes focus on specific genres or themes, like mystery or science fiction, which could align with the book club meetings he attends.

3. eReader or Audiobook Subscription: If your son enjoys reading on-the-go or exploring a vast library of books, consider gifting him an eReader device or an audiobook subscription. eReaders, like the Kindle or Kobo, offer a convenient way to carry an entire library and access popular titles instantly. Alternatively, an audiobook subscription, such as Audible, would allow him to immerse himself in books, even during busy times or while commuting.

4. Bookish Merchandise: Show your support for his passion by finding book-themed merchandise that complements his love for reading. This could include literary-inspired apparel, such as t-shirts or tote bags featuring quotes from his favorite books or authors. Additionally, decorative bookends, bookmarks, or bookplates with intricate designs can add style and charm to his bookshelf.

5. Literary Journal or Notebook: Encourage your son to express his thoughts, ideas, and reflections about the books he reads by gifting him a high-quality literary journal or notebook. With blank pages and inspiring quotes, he can jot down personal observations, memorable quotes, or creative ideas during book club meetings or while reading at home.

6. Bookstore or Book Club Gift Card: Sometimes, the best gift is the freedom to choose something oneself. Consider giving your son a gift card to a local bookstore or an online platform where he can browse and select books that pique his interest. Alternatively, if he is a member of any specific book club, a gift card to that bookstore could enable him to explore new titles while enjoying special discounts.

Remember, the most important aspect of gifting is to show that you appreciate your son's interests and support his passions. By selecting a gift that aligns with his love for attending book club meetings, you can demonstrate just how much you value his literary pursuits.

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

Madeline Moran Weiler says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
