2022 Holiday Gift Guide feat. Naty’s Bookshelf

As the end of the year nears, many hallowed traditions come to us. One of them, of course, is the annual collaboration post between Naty (from Naty’s Bookshelf, your prime source of book recommendations and reviews) and me! Here’s what we’ve done in the previous years together:

• 2021: Bookish Board Games
• 2020: Game-Movie-Book Recommendations for Theme Days
• 2019: Mutual Guest Posts with Book-Board Game Recommendations
• 2018: If You Liked This, Try This – Books and Board Games
• 2017: Bookish Board Games

This year, we’re giving gift ideas – board games (written by me) and books (written by Naty), particularly suited for the more casual gamer or reader.

Bookish Board Games

Today’s post is a bit different. Since Christmas is all about coming together with people, Naty from Naty’s Bookshelf (which you should check out if you love reading) and I have teamed up for this post. Since Christmas is all about fretting over what to gift other people as well, we’ll give you some ideas for wonderful presents to give to your loved ones, be they bookworms, board gamers, or both. Also remember: New games at Christmas are a wonderful way to convert non-gaming family members who happen to be there and are drawn in by the sheer beauty of a game to The Hobby. So, without further ado, here are a few board games based on books to make your Christmas this year extra special.
