'Can’t Talk, Must Read’ Graphic T-Shirt

For the Book Lover Who Gets Completely Lost in a Story

You crack open a book, and the world around you disappears. Time bends, reality fades, and suddenly, you’re somewhere else entirely—completely immersed in the magic of words. If you’ve ever been so deep in a story that re-entering the real world felt like a chore, this tee is for you.

Featuring original artwork by Australian artist Sandra Gale, this design started as a playful lettering experiment but quickly became a personal favourite. With "Can’t Talk, Must Read" boldly displayed on the book cover and "So Many Books, So Little Time" stacked on the spines, this tee is a love letter to the readers who never have enough bookshelf space.

A bestseller as a greeting card, now available to wear—because books aren’t just stories; they’re entire worlds.

Why You’ll Love It:

  • Affirm Your Bookish Identity: A wearable statement for literature lovers, deep thinkers, and those who live between the pages.

  • Effortless Style with Meaning: Not just a tee—this is a declaration of your love for stories, curiosity, and imagination.

  • Ridiculously Comfortable: Soft, breathable cotton that moves with you—because getting lost in a book should always be comfortable.

  • Versatile & Timeless: Available in White, Black Heather, Red, and Heather True Royal to match your bookish aesthetic.

  • An Everyday Favourite: Durable, soft, and perfect for curling up with your next read.

  • Buy any two tees and get free shipping—because why stop at one?

Good to Know:

  • Ultra-soft, lightweight fabric with the perfect amount of stretch—designed for all-day comfort.

  • Slightly shorter in length & sleeves than previous tees, but still super soft and tag-free for comfort.

  • Made to order & shipped direct from the printer – please allow approx. 1-2 weeks for delivery.

Sizing & Fit:

  • Emily & I are both wearing a size medium. Em (size 10 dress) prefers the large for an oversized fit, while I (size 12-14 dress) I like the fitted look of a medium for me, but I feel comfier in a large.

  • Unisex fit – women can size down for a fitted look or size up for a relaxed, oversized vibe.

  • Men's sizing: Choose your usual size for a standard fit.

  • Curvy or in-between sizes? For a drapey, looser feel, go up a size.

  • Compare with your fave tee: Lay a T-shirt flat & measure from underarm to underarm + top of collar to bottom hem.
