Gifts for Book Lovers That Aren't Another Book

The safest gift for a reader is not a book - they have a list, and opinions, and probably already own the one you'd pick. What they rarely buy themselves is everything around the reading: the light that saves the late chapter, the blanket for the nook, the mug that stays hot. These picks make the reading better without guessing their next title, at every budget.
