Five Star Gift Ideas

For a son who enjoys reading and discussing classical literature, there are several thoughtful and meaningful gift ideas that you can consider. These gifts will not only cater to his interest in literature but also show that you understand and appreciate his passion.

1. Classic Literature Collection: Consider purchasing a set of his favorite classic novels or a collection of works by a renowned author. This could be a complete collection of Shakespeare's plays, a set of Charles Dickens' novels, or a compilation of Jane Austen's works. Opt for beautifully bound editions or special collector's editions to enhance the aesthetic appeal and make it a treasured addition to his library.

2. Literary Subscription Box: Sign him up for a literary subscription box service that delivers a carefully curated selection of books, bookish items, and literary-themed goodies to his doorstep every month. This gift not only expands his literary repertoire but also adds an element of surprise and excitement to reading. Some popular options include Book of the Month, the Once Upon a Book Club Box, or the Owlcrate subscription.

3. Personalized Bookplate: Add a personal touch to his book collection by gifting him custom-made bookplates. These are adhesive labels that he can stick inside the cover of his books, indicating that they belong to him. Include his name or initials, along with a timeless quote from a favorite author or any meaningful message that embodies his love for literature.

4. Literary Inspired Jewelry: Surprise him with a piece of jewelry crafted with symbols or quotes from his favorite classic novels. A pendant with a quill pen, a bracelet with a Jane Austen quote, or cufflinks resembling book covers can serve as unique and meaningful gifts that he can wear to express his love for literature.

5. Literary Coffee Table Book: Consider gifting him a beautifully illustrated coffee table book dedicated to classic literature. These books often provide fascinating insights into the lives of famous authors, details about their works, and stunning visuals related to the literary world. This gift can be both visually appealing and intellectually stimulating, allowing him to immerse himself in the world of literature outside the pages of a novel.

6. Literary-themed Accessories: Look for accessories inspired by his favorite novels or authors. This could be a literary-themed scarf, socks, tote bag, or a mug featuring quotes or book covers from classic literature. Such items can be practical, stylish, and serve as constant reminders of his favorite authors wherever he goes.

Remember, when choosing a gift for your son who enjoys classical literature, it's crucial to consider his unique taste and preferences. By selecting a gift that aligns with his interests, you can make this Christmas truly special and show your support for his love of reading and discussing literature.

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.”
