Greetings, Doomers! Black Friday shopping started off as a huge annual sale on the day after Thanksgiving, then it slowly encroached upon Thanksgiving night, and now it seems like it’s a week-long event. So to help you get in on some of those early sales, we present to you our 2025 Holiday Gift Guide!

Now, if I’m the one putting together the Holiday Gift Guide (and this year, I am), it’s going to be book-centric, hence why you’ll see a lot of pictures of books here. BUT, I’ve also included a lot of other items, such as collectibles, games, toys, movies/TV, action figures, housewares, coloring books, cookbooks, tarot cards, journals, and more. While the spotlight selections were all released in 2025, items listed under each “related/similar” section might also be from prior to 2025, as are the Buzzworthy Books (older titles that are getting new buzz this year).

So check out our expanded Holiday Gift Guide 2025: Books, Games, Collectibles & More for our favorite holiday gift picks for the people in your life.
