The holidays are here! Hanukkah begins next week, and Christmas is less than three weeks away. I’m sure you have already started shopping, but what’s on your holiday list? What would you love to see what’s under the tree with YOUR name on it?
I know many of you love to read like I do. There is nothing better than diving into a new book. So whether you have a gift card burning a hole in your pocket, or shopping for another milspouse friend or family member, here are 10 gifts for the MilSpouse Book Lover:

Book of the Month Subscription
I have been subscribing to Book of the Month for almost five years now, and I love it. Book of the Month is a book subscription service where each month you get to chose a hardback book from five selections. One of the things I love about the Book of the Month subscription is that if you don’t like any of the books on a certain month, you can easily skip. If you like more than one, you can add up to two add-ons. And after 12-months as a subscriber, you become a BFF with special perks. I LOVE being able to pick out a new book once a month. You can sign up here, and if you love books as I do, you will be glad you did 🙂
Bookmarks
I LOVE cute bookmarks. There are so many amazing creators out there, making bookmarks based on anything. From favorite books to favorite phrases. Just head on over to Etsy and see what you can find. I have ordered some cute bookmarks from BOOGandBEAN and BookmarksAndBites.
Bookish Socks
I love cute socks! And there are some super cute socks for book lovers out there. These Lavley Nerd Socks are SO fun!!!
Military Spouse Fiction
Are you a fan of military spouse fiction? Here are some authors that write about military spouse fiction or military life fiction:
- Beyond the Point by Claire Gibson
- Up in Smoke by Hannah Conway
- Full Measures by Rebecca Yarros
- Soldier On by Vanessa Rasanen
- Don’t Mean a Thing by Renee Conoulty

A Kindle Paperwhite
I LOVE my Paperwhite. If you are going to get a Kindle to read on, the Paperwhite is the best choice. You won’t feel like you are reading on a computer or phone, which is so nice. The newest version is waterproof and I use the light every night when reading in bed.
If you are going to get a new Kindle, you need a pretty new case. And there are many to choose from. Most of them are pretty affordable too. Just make sure the case you are buying fits your model of Kindle. I just bought myself this pretty one.
100 Books Scratch Off Poster
This is such a neat idea! The 100 Books Scratch Off Poster- Top Reads of All Time Bucket List. Put it on your wall, and once you read the book, scratch it off.
A Bookish Tee
What’s better than a bookish tee? There are so many to choose from. I love this “My Weekend is All Booked T Shirt.” It pretty much describes my life.
A Reading Journal
Tracking what you read can be a fun way to remember your reading year. And they make some amazing reading journals. For example, this Bibliophile Reader’s Journal by Jane Mount, with beautiful illustrations.
The Newbie’s Guide to Military Life: Surviving a PCS and More by Noralee Jones and Julie Provost.
Mrs. Navy Mama and I wrote a book last year, all about military life. In the book you will find: 10 Chapters based on the most frequently asked questions from new MILSOs, handouts and worksheets to supplement chapters and bring solutions, a resources list with links and specific posts broken down by topics, guides for Acronyms, PCSing list, and more!
