Five Star Gift Ideas

For a son who enjoys participating in a book club, there are several meaningful and personal gift ideas that you can consider. These gifts will not only enhance his reading experience but also show your thoughtfulness in supporting his hobby. Here are a few suggestions:

1. Subscription to a Book Box: Consider gifting your son a subscription to a book box service. These monthly subscriptions deliver a curated selection of books based on the recipient's preferences. Each month, he'll receive a surprise package containing new releases, popular titles, or books from a specific genre. This gift will add excitement to his book club experience and introduce him to a wide variety of authors and genres.

2. Bookish Merchandise: Look for book-related merchandise that complements his book club activities. You can find items like bookish candles inspired by his favorite novels, literary-themed clothing or accessories, book-inspired art prints, or even personalized bookmarks. These unique gifts will not only remind him of his love for reading but also create a conversation starter in his book club.

3. Personalized Bookplates: Help your son personalize his book collection with custom bookplates. These small adhesive labels can be designed with his name or initials and can be placed inside the front cover of his books. This thoughtful gift not only adds a personal touch but also ensures that his books are easily identifiable in his book club meetings.

4. Reading Journal or Planner: Consider gifting him a reading journal or planner that allows him to keep track of his reading progress, rate and review books, jot down memorable quotes, and set reading goals. This gift will not only help him track his book club recommendations but also provide a space for self-reflection on his reading journey.

5. Author-signed Book: If there is a particular author your son admires or enjoys reading, consider getting him an autographed copy of one of their books. This can be a cherished addition to his book collection and make his reading experience even more memorable. Many authors offer signed copies on their websites or during book signing events.

6. Bookstore or Book Club Gift Card: If you're unsure of your son's reading preferences or want to give him the freedom to choose his own books, a gift card to a local bookstore or an online retailer can be a great option. Alternatively, you can also consider a gift card specifically for his book club, allowing him to buy books for his book club meetings or any other literary events he may attend.

Remember, the most important aspect of any gift is the thought and effort put into selecting it. By considering your son's love for book clubs, you're already on the right track to finding a meaningful and personal gift that will make this festive season even more special for him.

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.”
