10 Must-Haves for Book Nerds

Are you a book geek? Know something who is? Then you're going to love these insanely clever products for book lovers.

P.S. There's a O% percent chance you're not keeping at least one of these for yourself. Don't say I didn't warn you.

1. Nerdy Candles

What does a bookstore candle smell like exactly? The description says it contains scents of: Driftwood, Mahogany, Coffee, and a hint of Leather. I'm intrigued. Bonus points that it's not made with icky chemicals. Score one for only $18.00. There's also a scent called Winterfell! Would it be super nerdy to light it and watch Game of Thrones? Maybe I'm the wrong person to answer that :D.

2. Personal Library Kit

For a bibliophile, there's no greater pleasure than sharing beloved books, but no crueler pain than losing them for good. This Personal Library Kit can put an end to lost books. Plus, it's absolutely adorable! $16.00.

3. Witty T-Shirts

Book t-shirts are everywhere, and each one is seemingly cuter than the next. These are just some of my favorites.

All About Reading Tag

I was tagged to do the “All About the Reading” tag by the lovely Christie Stratos. Answering these questions was so much fun! Learn what I hate in a book, which book should be required reading for everyone, and which books (if any) I re-read. All those questions and more are answered in this video. Check it out!
