She believes “all good book nerds have them in all parts of the house!”). Congrats Melissa!

“BOOK ME!”
I honestly don’t have a place for my favorite books. BUT if I win this giveaway these bad boys are going to be on display in the living room!
Carrie says
Book Me!
I’ve got an ever-growing pile of books on my nightstand. I also have a 3 month old. It’ll be a while till I work through those, but I’m always looking for new good books to add to the pile!
Alison says
BOOK ME!
My husband and I are both completely obsessive book worms. We have books in every room of our home except the bathroom. It’s actually kind of a big decorating problem. We have books in a small bookcase in the living room, above the sink in the kitchen, in the office and on an entire hugely long wall in the bedroom. And on our nightstands. And on the end table next to the sofa. And in the car in case we get stranded somewhere. And two in my purse in case I finish out while I’m out. Yeah.
So five or six more won’t get in the way :-)

Frances Favela says
BOOK ME, please.
We keep our special books in our built-in glass cabinets that came with our 1920’s bungalow. We love them!
We could really use these books to guide us on our home decorating adventure.
thanks!
Frances

Most of my books have been in the garage for over a year since I moved. I need to paint my laminate bookshelves to put them out, and clearly this is something I’m avoiding. But, usually I love lots of books everywhere!

We love our books! Current reads are kept on the night stand, but the rest of our books are kept safely on a bookshelf in our home office since we have lots of friends with kids around all the time, and the books are safer behind a closed door!

BOOK ME!! My current choice is always sitting on the nightstand because that seems to be the only free time I can find to read is when I finally lay down at night. BY THE WAY!! Your book was just delivered to my door…I’m reading it right now!! AMAZING!!

// BOOK ME //
My special books live in our ‘book nook.’ There is an area in our apartment that was meant to be a formal dining room, but it seemed better suited for our colorful collection of design books & novels. We have a giant bookshelf that is backed by our fun chevron wall. Our books share the space with pictures and mementos of our friends & fam.

Erin says
BOOK ME!
We recently were able to dedicate an entire room in our small house (which will eventually become a nursery) to my library :) I have three book shelves total in there, two of them side by side, and the top two shelves of both of those hold my most favorite books. And whatever book I am currently reading finds itself alternately sitting on our living room endtable or my bedside table.
Sarah says
BOOK ME!
My books live on a bookshelf in my bedroom. I happily and easily give most fiction books that I’ve read to others, while keeping a few favorites, but I can’t bear to part with my travel books and a few other favorites, i.e. decorating, some biographies, etc.
Dani M. says
Book me!
My husband and I have a ton of bookshelves for our little apartment, but the best ones live in the living room, or on my bedside table if I’m re-reading them!
Adee says
Book Me! I’m not very interesting-we just keep our books on the bookshelf.
Lin says
Book Me! We are book lovers at our house. Last library book sale, we came home with 22 books. We have books on bookshelves in the living room, under the coffee table (stacked neatly, might I say), on side tables, on bookshelves in the bedroom, on the floor next to the bed, on our bedside tables, on two bookshelves and along a blackboard wall in our son’s room Books migrate throughout the house. When we last moved, the movers told us, “You don’t have a lot of stuff like furniture but you have a ton of books and tools.” That’s our life!
Amy says
Book Me!
Courtney says
Ooh BOOK ME!!!!!!!! I keep my faves either on my dresser or bookcase in our office.
