no problem, if she doesn't like books there are many other things I can recommend though. That book is great though ^_^
EDIT: Oh I see you've added her interests
Art and Music hmmm, can't really help you with Music and Art.... that one's a tad more difficult to do. Does she like to cosplay? Does she like anime/manga/VN/LN, I assume not though xD

Ah I see, so she likes anime and manga, that makes things a lot easier for me to choose from. Toradora and Fruits Basket seem like a mix between Shoujo/Slice of Life which is a fairly common type that women like.
Does she like cute guys? Or hot ones? If so I'd recommend a poster or body pillow, something along those lines.
If you're not bold enough to give her that or if she isn't THAT into it. Then you can always shoot for the Toradora Light Novel but chances are I doubt she could read Japanese either...
Most girls that are into anime typically cosplay when they grow older (and I assume you're over 17 especially since you're moving in with her) so it'd be easy to choose threads/models/sewing kits, but it leaves me with a lot less choices.
Hmmm... there's always the option of cooking her something special for Christmas if you can cook, but I'd probably buy a body pillow of a hit bishy for my friend xD. Sorry I wasn't of much help, if I come up with better ideas I'll post some more.
EDIT: oops, just read that you didn't want to give her books. Sorry about that then :|

lol i could never gift her a body pillow xD would be funny though.
the cooking sounds nice, I've sort of done it before but it was just breakfast so maybe this time ill do some fancy cooking.
thanks a lot. (still browsing amazon just in case)

Yeah body pillows are always nice. I love them myself, they're so fun to have ^o^
and yeah, cooking is a bit overused and cliche. But it's always a nice effort, it's great to go along with a present that you're not too sure about, or if you just want to do it for the heck of it ^_^
EDIT: Woops, though you said you could get her a body pillow, nvm then.

involved in anime,manga,illustrator...just like my GF lol. Last week I bought her a Monster Hunter Airou pillow for her bday present. My advice is buy a thing that you think/unexpectedly she like most, useful and match with your budget :D

Usually this type of work is less work for a person and more so a love, so in this instance its a good thing to get her something work related.

Twelve drummers drumming,
Eleven pipers piping,
Ten lords a-leaping,
Nine ladies dancing,
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree!

Thought the kickstarter did fail. I think they are still going to make the program. Something to look at in the future. (probably won't be around for a while)

A Canon(had the best luck as a photographer with them, epson has ink issues) printer, I highly recommend the Pixma 9000 MkII.
But thats kinda expensive, just an idea.

Ah I see, though because of the offer they had a while back they are a bargain on ebay right now still.

idk.. when i give gifts to people they usually end up joking, "Well, you could have just given me the money you spent on this." Give money.. deep down inside, that's what is wanted.
Don't forget to add a nice card/note/letter with that
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah this is sad but very true. The worth of gifts is hard to choose for someone. I usually end up getting something that the person already has, or that they give you the face where it's like "eh... not interested, but okay".
Money would be ideal if you were giving a gift to a friend, but this is your girlfriend so I think you should at least have a general idea of what to get her xD
Comment has been collapsed.
the point of the gift isn't to increase the other person's net worth. It's to show that you think about them, know what they like, and want to make their lives better. Or, as every single person over the age of 30 has put it: it's the thought that counts. If you approach gifts as the gifter or giftee any way other than that, you're doing it wrong.

yep.. i guess that's how it's supposed to work. OP, do something that lets her know you was thinking of her. whatever you choose, i'm sure she'll appreciate it :)

Nothing says "I love you" like a ring. Of course, there's no turning back after that.

my girlfriend's an illustrator and graphic designer, i'm getting her some Dr. Seuss books and was planning on getting her this but it takes 4 weeks to get here (2 weeks to US on EMS Express for 36 extra dollars and 2 more weeks to get to my country) so its of the table (at least for now)
so, what should i get her?
EDIT: just so you get an idea of her she loves art, old music like Frank Sinatra and some Dylan, baking and reading.... sadly she's not the biggest gamer of all so cant get her that (though she's gonna play FFIX).
Basically every gift ive ever given her are books, so i want something different.
thanks guys
EDIT2: when i say art i mean fine art like Jenny Saville, Louise Bourgeois or Marina Abramovic
