So many book-hungry people out there! This giveaway hit its 10,000 cap within 24 hours, so we’re already back with a winner. The lucky worm is… Melissa (who keeps her favorite books in a bedside cabinet, a living room end table, and on a special display shelf in the family room. She believes “all good book nerds have them in all parts of the house!”). Congrats Melissa!
Our book release is officially here! Woo hoo! And we’re celebrating by giving away books this week. But not just our book. Lots o’ books. In fact, some of them will even come signed by some pretty awesome people. Woot! We’ve been gobbling up so many design, decor, and home books lately that we thought it’d be fun to share some of our recent faves from our library.

- PRIZE: Copies of all of the books shown above, including signatures from us, Gretchen Rubin, Abby Larson, the Novogratzes, and Ana White!
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “BOOK ME!” and tell us…
- BONUS QUESTION: … what special place in your home do you keep your favorite books? Do they get a prime spot on your coffee table? Or do you have a large collection of faves that fill a bookcase somewhere? Maybe your top pick at the moment just lives cozily on your night table?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, Nov 7th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One

Jennifer says
Book ME. There is not a room in my house that doesn’t have a stack of books in it. Most are proudly displayed but there are a few cheesy ones (like john grisham) that I will hide away.
Sheri says
BOOK ME! I love all sorts of books – DIY books, cookbooks, novels, biographies – anything!
Kathryn says
ooo – book me please. I’ve been meaning to pick up several of those.
Gail says
Book me!
We keep our books in a bookcase in our bedroom! But I’ve also recently taken 3 books (all white without the covers) and placed them in the living room, with a cute white ceramic fish I scored at a thrift store for $3!! Thanks for constant inspiration!
Damia says
BOOK ME!
We just bought three shiny new Billy bookcases for all of our books. It feel so awesome and grown up to have matching bookcases! :)
Jill says
BOOK ME!
Sara says
Book Me! We LOVE books in our house, so one of the first things we did when we moved in was create a full wall of bookshelves (that only look built in, despite my wishes that they actually were) so we could have easy access to all of our favorites!
Jill Stigs says
“BOOK ME!” Books are kept on my nightstand (usually)
Kate says
Book Me!!
My books tend to live equally on my coffee table and my bookshelf… any word yet on a new NYC book tour date?
Laura says
BOOK ME!
Ana says
BOOK ME!
I keep my books on a small bookshelf and keep it tightly edited. I love books, but they have a tendency to take over.
Tracy says
BOOK ME!
Bookshelves in a spare room; then baskets of in-progress or TBR books elsewhere :-)
Michelle says
BOOK ME, BOOK ME, BOOK ME, PLEASE! This is definitely my favorite giveaway to date! My books live on a built-in bookcase, that I am dying to paint the backs of a la YHL.
Kim says
Book Me!
Emily R says
Book Me!
I have too many books to count (and yes, I arrange them by color!) I’ve actually stopped buying books and now use the library exclusively. But a good design book always has room in my home.
Elena says
BOOK ME!
We have so many books, we have several special places where we keep them but my favorite is a little nook with a bookshelf, cozy chair, blanket and a kitty on your lap if you get lucky. :)
Amber says
BOOK ME!
My books generally live on my nightstand until I’m done reading them. (Your book currently lives there!) Then they usually find a place to live forever … on our coffee table or a shelf somewhere. Would LOVE to read ALL of those books!!!
Kristen L says
BOOK ME!
My favorite books I keep in the book case in the living room so I can look at them more often.
Beth says
BOOK ME!! We have a shelf that keeps the majority of our books but the uber-special ones are on display in the living room where I can see them everyday. I would love to add the YHL book to my collection!
Meg Smith says
Book Me! We have a wall of bookshelves surrounding our fireplace! Love it!!!
Cindi says
BOOK ME! What an awesome giveaway!!
Lauren Elizabeth says
Ooh! Hoping to buy a house next spring, could definitely use some decorating inspiration! BOOK ME! Our prettiest books are on a shelf under the coffee table, but we have a huge bookshelf that is overflowing and in need of organization!
Alise says
BOOK ME!
I adore reading. I keep the books I’m currently reading on top of our dresser. Some of my favorite books, though, are really old ones that belonged to my late grandfather. I have those on display as unique design pieces in our home.
Ashley A says
BOOK ME! Please :)
I keep my favorite books in these awesome built-in shelves on my wall. I do have a few on my nightstand that I read in rotation. I usually read 3 books at once :)
Kelly says
BOOK ME!
I keep all of my favorite books on display on our bookcase console just under the TV.
Nicole says
BOOK ME!
I like to use some books as decor, and others I keep on my nightstand. I tend to rotate them around as well.
Side note: I am ANXIOUSLY awaiting my pre-ordered Amazon.com YHL book, but I happened to be at Barnes and Noble last Friday and lo and behold there was your book! I really wanted to sit down and devour the whole thing but my 8 month old had other plans :). But you guys… it looks AWESOME! I didn’t realize it was square either- love love love it. Congrats!
Kendra says
BOOK ME!
My books are everywhere – book shelves, coffee table, bedside table, kitchen table (oops?) – because there are too many to keep in one place! This might be my favorite giveaway EVER and I’m crossing all of my fingers and toes that I win.
Katie says
Book Me!
Erin {Home Everyday} says
BOOK ME! We have huge bookcases that house a ton of books. The kids have their own too :)
Jennifer says
BOOK ME!
Your book would join my other favorites on the shelf above the wine rack after a long rotation on the coffee table.
Anjali says
Book Me!
My favorites live right on my night stand for easy perusal!

Book me! Favorite fiction of the moment always only iPad. But craft/cooking/reference books are downstairs in my craft corner,
Renee says
BOOK ME!
I keep my important/fave books close at hand at the bookshelf in my room. Other stuff goes in the library/office shelves
Justin says
Book Me!
Lara says
BOOK ME!
I have a bookshelf in my bedroom. I love seeing all of the pretty books in there, they actually bring a lot of color to the shelf.
Ashley E. says
BOOK ME! I have a small stack of current favorites on my nightstand, and I’m sure that yours will end up there :) Thanks for the giveaway!
Lauren says
BOOK ME! My books are all displayed nicely in my built in bookcase.
Rachael says
Book me! I am lucky enough to have an extra bedroom I use as a library (and the closet in there holds my knitting stuff)! It was the first room fully unpacked when we moved in, because I knew exactly where all the books belonged and it made me feel so calm amidst the chaos of moving to go in there and see everything tidy! (Note: it has somehow also become a room for general storage lately and is significantly less tidy.)
Kate says
Book me! I keep books . . . in EVERY room! I have books in my living room, books in my kitchen, books in my bedroom, books in my study, books in the bathroom, and the run-over books are stored in closets and in my storage unit! (It’s a bit of a sickness, but you could have worse habits than buying books, I guess! I hope!) I have books displayed on my coffee table, piled on top of my stereo speakers (Am I dating myself with that comment?) and on shelves, which I stuff into every nook and cranny! I even use an old rocking chair in my bedroom as a place to pile books, instead of for sitting! But I still have room for one more — Young House Love is a must buy! Good luck on your tour!
Becky says
BOOK ME!
I have always loved reading… my favorite books live in my nightstand drawer and whatever I’m currently reading gets a prime spot in a living room end table.
Helen says
Book me! All my faves live in a bookshelf in our upstairs hallway. :)
norah says
Book me! I have a cute dachshund bookend set by Jonathan Adler. All my designy books go in there.
Jenny says
BOOK ME!
My favorite books live on a big bookshelf in my bedroom, with my very favorites taking up the entire top shelf. There’s even a perfectly sized spot for the YHL book just waiting to be filled!
Heidi says
Book me! My books live on my coffee table, a shelf in the den, and on my kindle.
Ashley says
Book me! We have a beautiful book case for most books, but a few special ones live on the coffee table or on side tables framing the couch.
hollie says
BOOK ME!
What an amazing giveaway!
I keep my favorites on my coffee table to flip through while I have my bedtime hot chocolate :)
Katie says
BOOK ME!
I have several bookcases in the house — two in the living room, one in my bedroom and one in my home office — so showcasing books is kind of my jam. The prettiest favorites, though, are displayed atop my West Elm coffee table. It’s a whole lot of loveliness.
Christy says
BOOK ME!
My books live on a couple of shelves that act a center piece on my office wall.
Nadine says
Book Me!!! Congrats on the official release!
Deanna Hunt says
BOOK ME!!!
I lurve me some coffee table books!
