Associate Editor

Erica Ezeifedi, Associate Editor, is a transplant from Nashville, TN that has settled in the North East. In addition to being a writer, she has worked as a victim advocate and in public libraries, where she has focused on creating safe spaces for queer teens, mentorship, and providing test prep instruction free to students. Outside of work, much of her free time is spent looking for her next great read and planning her next snack. Find her on Twitter at @Erica_Eze_.

I’m a part of two gift clubs right now—one virtual and one in person—and oddly enough, I feel more personally connected with the virtual one. This may be because I’ve been able to attend more meetings because I don’t have to travel for them, and the fact that our readings tend to be on the more fun side (though they still can take it there from time to time).

If I met up with the virtual group more often (so far we’ve only done one in-person meet up), I could totally see us doing a little Secret Santa for really low-cost, bookish things. If you’ve been rocking with your book club for a little while now, and you celebrate winter holidays, the items I have listed below may come in clutch as gifts for this holiday season.

Personalized Book Holder

This personalized book holder has “bedside table fixture” written all over it, because we all know the books there could stand to be a little more organized. $80

Reading candle

Candles are always a safe bet with gifting (though it is important to keep allergies in mind), and this one has different scent options—like apple harvest and sea salt + orchid—as well as a personalization option. $28
