Bookish gifts for readers
Every parcel is put together by me, by hand, in Ireland — no algorithm, no random bestseller. Tell me who it's for and what they love reading, and I'll match the book.
Bookish gifts for the reader in your life
Every parcel is packed by me, by hand, in Ireland. No algorithm picks the book — I do, based on what the reader actually likes.
Blind date with a book
No cover, no title, no blurb — just three hints on the paper and a book I've read and loved, matched to the tropes and vibes you tell me about.
Other ways to gift a book
Frequently asked questions
- What makes a good gift for a book lover?
- A book chosen for their taste plus something to read it with — a candle, a mug, a notebook. Every Bella Bugs Books parcel pairs a hand-picked book with bookish treats and a handwritten note.
- Can I send a gift straight to the recipient?
- Yes. Add their address at checkout, leave your message in the notes, and Amy writes it on the card — no invoice goes in the parcel.
- What if I don't know what they've already read?
- Blind Date with a Book is the safest choice: Amy matches by mood and tropes rather than a specific title, and duplicates can be swapped.
- How much do bookish gifts cost?
- Parcels start at €17.99 for a pre-loved blind date and go up to €39.99 for a bundle of three new books, plus postage.
- How late can I order for a birthday or Christmas?
- Order at least a week ahead within Ireland and two weeks for the UK and EU. Packages are posted within 3 working days of ordering.
