Literary Book Gifts Writing Gloves

Today I am reviewing a book/writing related thing here on my blog.


These are writing gloves.





I wanted to model them for you but my computers being weird tonight. So the gloves only showed up best in the package.


I did open these and put them on and they are so soft! I cant wait to wear them why I am writing one of my scripts or poems. Yes I write with good old pen and paper.


The gloves fit nicely on your hands. Your fingers are exposed for better dexterity. I never have worn gloves like these before and worried about not liking them but I found them to be very comfortable.


The gloves are very durable and I think they should be easy to wash.


They also would work for typing or using other electronic devices.




The color of these gloves are blush pink.


They are cashmere writing gloves and they retail for $52 you can purchase a pair at this link:

I think they would also make perfect graduation gifts for students going into creative writing or they would make perfect gifts in general.


I would highly recommend them!


I would like to thank literary book gifts for letting me try and review these gloves.

Dark Tribute Promo





















New York Times bestseller Iris Johansen is back with another high octane thriller that will leave your mind racing and your heart pounding.
Despite her tragic childhood, violin prodigy Cara Delaney has finally found peace in her career as a professional musician and stability in her relationship with her guardians, forensic sculptor Eve Duncan and ex-Navy SEAL Joe Quinn. If only Jock Gavin, Cara's lifelong friend and a man with his own twisted history, would come back into her life, everything would be perfect.
But the carefully constructed world Cara has built for herself is suddenly threatened when she is kidnapped by a mysterious man trying to settle a score against her family, setting off a violent chain of events that puts everyone Cara loves in danger. Now, Cara will have to use every instinct she has to stay one step ahead, or else she’ll pay the deadly tribute of her family’s dark past.

My thoughts on the book:
Was not a big fan of this book just not the type of thing I normally read.

Thank you to the publisher for sending it to me.
