Necklace:

Book charms (you can custom order a favorite title):

Vintage/antique books charm (I love this one!):

Etsy also has all kinds of paintings done on old dictionary and encyclopedia pages, which are really cool. Honestly just go to Etsy.com and search "books" and you'll find all kinds of great stuff!

Nobody has mentioned the Book Scented perfume yet.

I think there are several different perfume makers making it or something siilar at this point, so I will not post any pic, just mention it.
