THE READER’S CATALOG
This beautiful site is a one-stop shop for the understated reader in your life. Be warned: if you, too, are of a quietly bookish mind, you’ll want at least a dozen things for yourself. The Reader’s Catalog is full of useful goods with a literary bent, which automatically makes any purchase guilt free! That’s how it works, right?

Bodleian Winter Titles Wrapping Paper. $6.95. Image from The Reader’s Catalog.
Writer’s Pencils. $18.95. Image from The Reader’s Catalog.
“I Am Born” Infant Tee (David Copperfield). $19.95. Image from The Reader’s Catalog.

I bought a watch from them that should be arriving in a few days. I hope it’s as great as on the website.

I really hope you love your watch. Let me know what you think.

It arrived yesterday and I’m enjoying it so far. Actually, I opted for a non-literary watch. I couldn’t say no to the Sisyphus watch. Also, the watch seems uni-sex and in appropriately sized for a woman’s wrist (which I happen to have!).

I’m glad it is a keeper! I just saw it and it looks really cool.

Ooh – I’ll take the writers’ pencils. What a fantastic website! Impressive “Gifts Under $25” section… I love the “Little Librarian Kit”!!! So cute! I used to pretend I was a librarian when I was little, and I would have LOVED this!

Ha, I used to pretend to be a librarian, too. The Reader’s Catalog is a great website, but the one I posted earlier today is, dare I say it, even better. I do not know if you have ever been on The Literary Gift Company’s website, but it is amazing. AMAZING!
