Five Star Gift Ideas

For your son, who enjoys reading and discussing books in a book club, there are several thoughtful and meaningful gift ideas that would truly resonate with his interests.

1. Subscription to a Book Club: This gift would allow your son to explore a wide range of books and engage in lively discussions with fellow book lovers. Look for book clubs that cater to his specific interests, whether it's classics, science fiction, or contemporary literature.

2. Personalized Bookmarks: Get your son a set of personalized bookmarks engraved with his name or a meaningful quote. Not only would they be practical for his reading sessions, but they would also add a personal touch to his literary experience.

3. Bookish Merchandise: Consider getting him merchandise inspired by his favorite books, such as a T-shirt with a book-related quote, a tote bag featuring bookshelf artwork, or a mug depicting his favorite literary characters. These items would allow him to showcase his love for books even outside his book club meetings.

4. Book-Themed Journal or Notebook: Encourage your son's passion for reading and discussion by gifting him a book-themed journal or notebook. He can use it to jot down his thoughts, reflections, or even keep a record of his book club meetings. Look for options that feature famous quotes, illustrations, or literary themes on the cover.

5. Literary Map or Poster: Surprise your son with a literary map or poster that depicts famous authors, works of literature, or significant locations from his favorite book genres. This unique gift will not only serve as a decorative piece for his room but also inspire him to explore new authors or books.

6. Audible Subscription: If your son enjoys listening to audiobooks, gifting him a subscription to Audible can be a great idea. This way, he can conveniently enjoy his favorite books while commuting, doing chores, or engaging in other activities. It is an ideal option for multi-taskers or individuals with a busy schedule.

7. Bookstore Gift Card: If you're unsure about which books your son already owns or would prefer, a gift card to his favorite local bookstore or an online bookseller would enable him to choose books for himself. It shows that you respect his preferences and trust his judgment when it comes to selecting the books he wants to read and discuss.

Remember, the best gift is one that reflects your son's interests and passions. By giving him a gift that aligns with his love for reading and book club discussions, you demonstrate that you value and support his intellectual 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.”
