Book Stand for Dad
According to the website, this bookstand is only for dads. Sorry, everyone else. It’s also more of a gigantic bookmark than a bookstand, but wouldn’t it look cool on your nightstand? Not to mention it’d be so much easier to just flop your book onto this giant triangle than putting a wee little bit of ribbon between the pages. Unless you’re not a dad, then it’s bookmarks or bust.
