What Makes It Uncommon

Even when a book's so good that you can't put it down, your hands would still appreciate a rest now and then. These lightweight yet durable book holders make reading less of a juggling act. Designed for both hardbound and softbound books, each one features a dual-sided shape and ample width to hold pages open, even when reading outside in a breeze. Whether you want to keep one hand free for coffee or you're stretching out with a book in the sun, these beautifully engraved holders make every chapter more enjoyable.

  • Handcrafted from solid cherrywood that is lightweight yet sturdy.
  • Designed for one-handed reading—simply place in the book's crease and rest your thumb in the hole.
  • Dual-sided design for maximum comfort: round side for hardbound books, pointed side for softbound books.
  • Available in 2 engraved text designs: "Between the pages of a book is a lovely place to be" or "Just one more chapter."
  • Uncommon Exclusive: Created by our in-house team and only available at Uncommon Goods.
  • Handmade in Indiana. Designed by Uncommon Goods in Brooklyn, NY.

Beautiful Idea

This book buddy is beautiful and a great idea for someone who doesn't read really fast. I purchased this as a gift for my mother, who reads A LOT, thinking it would be more comfortable for her. I asked how she liked it and she told me "It's a great idea, but I'm having to remove it too quickly to turn pages. I guess I read faster than I thought." So, if you have someone that is an avid, quick reader this may be more of a hassle for them. But, if you or someone you know reads at a slower pace this may be a great gift.

For the person who has everything

My daughter in law is an avid book reader. It has to be a real book with pages she can physically turn and feel and smell. This is for the reader who thought there was nothing else they needed for their passion. She couldn't wait to try it out! It was wonderful and I got another "pat on the back" for surprising the woman who has everything!

Gift for an avid reader

I purchased this item for my 82-year-old mom who reads books like they might evaporate if not finished quickly enough! I thought this would alleviate some of the stress on her hands of having to hold open a book, and I was right. She is using it daily and it is super helpful during long hours of sitting and reading. No more tired hands or cramping, and it's easy to switch back and forth between left and right hands to give each one a break. #sweepstakes

So helpful!

I love that it takes the pressure off my wrist and fingers while reading! The "just one more chapter..." text brings me so much joy. A bit pricey, but the touch of whimsy and the hand relief are worth the money. #sweepstakes

Perfect gift for my avid reader!!

The book buddy is fantastic for reading in bed, or when trying to hold onto & read to a toddler in one's lap. It's lightweight and works as advertised! I gave 4 instead of 5 stars because it could be slightly longer to hold open larger books. Overall, love it!!
