Seattle’s iconic bookstore (50+ years and counting) offers much more than books. Their carefully selected accessories make perfect gifts for literary enthusiasts. One of their most novel offerings (pun not intended) is the Rolife Book Nook Shelf Inserts—magical little wooden puzzle houses that can be assembled to perch between books on your bookshelf. EBB also has literary advent calendars, tote bags, and games such as Random House copyediting chief Benjamin Dreyer’s “Stet! Dreyer’s English: A Game for Language Lovers, Grammar Geeks, and Bibliophiles.” (Who says copyeditors aren’t fun at parties?) Meanwhile, Watermark Bindery’s hand-sewn journals have been local faves for decades.
