It can be hard to shop for the book lover in your life—they usually have the buying-books part covered. So our gifting experts have found some presents that will support their hobby, rather than assign them reading. Our favorite finds include a bookish baseball hat, a candle meant to smell like an intoxicating old library, and a crewneck sweatshirt to help them rep their favorite author.
