12 Mugs That Book-Lovers Will Adore

As fall begins and the temperature drops, there’s nothing better than bundling up with a warm sweater, a mug of hot chocolate, and (obviously) a good book. Something about sitting in a corner until you’ve eaten all the marshmallows and finished an entire book in one sitting just screams “autumn” — and it’s one of the best feelings ever for any book-lover.

Even though I’m always a little sad to see summer end (because reading on the beach is a dream come true), I’m still excited for fall. It should completely be every book-lover’s favorite season, partially because books and winter drinks just go so perfectly together.

Of course, what makes the whole scene even better is having the perfect mug for your hot fall beverage. Whether you’re drinking coffee, tea, or a pumpkin spice latte (because obviously), you can show your love of reading through your overflowing bookshelf AND your choice of drinking vessel. From mugs printed with your favorite book covers, to teacups featuring quotes that only fellow fans will recognize, all these choices will only enhance your winter reading-and-drinking-tea experience. And if you manage to coordinate your reading material with your mug? That’s the cherry on top. Or should I say the pumpkin spice?
