Reading Light
The last gift we recommend on this list is none other than the coveted reading light. When it comes to reading, it can be so easy to spend all night turning page to page, but sometimes lamps and fairy lights are just too bright. Luckily, the handy dandy reading light is just what you need for when you want into the early hours of the morning.
In particular, this elevated reading light from Amazon is the perfect way to illuminate your book outside of the typical clip-on light.
