A Gift Guide for *All* the Nerdy Folks On Your List
Scene:
You’ve got a bad, bad case of Pandemic Brain.
You’re going merrily about your day, when all of a sudden you catch a glimpse of the calendar.
(What, don’t judge! People still have those! YES THEY DO. What? YOUR MOM. Ahem. Anyway…)
You begin to break out in a cold sweat as you realize Christmas and Hanukkah are less than a month away!
WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO FOR GIFT GIVING!
But lo, a hero has entered the room.
Shock! Awe! Relief!
It’s Divination Hollow Reviews and their Gift Giving Guide!
What we’re saying is...if you’re struggling for ideas on what to purchase for your loved ones? Rest easy; we've done the hard work for you. We have an expansive guide of weird and wonderful ideas for all the nerdy and bookish humans in your life. Chill, bruh. Just grab your credit cards and click through this list to place your orders ASAP to get things in time for the holidays.
Note: Please be mindful of shipping cut-off dates for each indie seller. Also bear in mind that the US and the global postal system are a bit shaken up by the pandemic. Order early but be ready to provide a “coming soon” notice to your gift recipient in case of shipping delays. Sellers and makers are working hard to ensure that your products get to you ASAP, but they cannot control the postal service! Thank you.
