https://player.vimeo.com/video/126611591
If this isn’t the most useful bookish tool you’ve ever heard of, I can’t wait to hear what is. The LiliLite acts not only as a book lamp (that sensors on and off when you’re reading), but it’s also a modern-looking shelf, AND a bookmark. How about that?! Find out more about the LiliLite here.
The “Go Away I’m Reading” Coffee Mug
It’s hard to be polite when you’re just trying to get in one more chapter, right? This mug says it all for you, and you get to sip your coffee while getting the message across. You can buy this mug here!
Thumb Thing Book Page Holders
Don’t you hate it when you put down your book to do something and you lose your page? Worry not, Savvy Readers. It’s 2017 and the solution is here: Thumb Thing page holders! Keep the pages in your book held wide open for easier reading, to save your space, and to help you read with one hand while standing (like on the subway), sitting, or lying down. What a useful tool. Get it here!
A Subscription to a Bookish Podcast!
When you’re not reading, what are you doing? If you need something to keep you company when you’re on the move or doing chores, look no further than this Book Riot list of 25 Outstanding Podcasts for Readers, and subscribe to the one that sounds most enticing to you!
Literary Tea
If you’re into tea (and books), the First Edition Tea Co (a Canadian company that uses local ingredients!) is where you can pick up delicious tea inspired by great books! Whether you’re in the mood for a little Pride and Prejudice or Sherlock Holmes, there’s a tea for you! Or you can buy the whole pack. View them all here!
Noise Cancelling Headphones
If you’re one of those people who can read with music (or white noise) playing in the background, but can’t stand loud cafes (or if you just have a really annoying sibling), get yourself a pair of noise-cancelling headphones to ensure you stay tuned in to your book. Click here to check them out!

This Books & Alone Tote Bag
Why not carry around your books in a tote bag that describes who you really are? If you’re more of a “books & alone” than a “Netflix & chill” kind of person, wear it proud. You can get this *perfect* bag here!
Book-Themed Candles
What’s better than cozying up with a blanket, a cup of coffee, and a bookish candle in the fall? Not a lot! Candles like these Harry Potter themed ones will definitely help set the mood for an afternoon of reading. Get them here!
