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!

Book me!
All of my favorites are out in the open, in my entertainment center/hutch. Harry Potter, Outlander, Dave Eggers, and more stare at and judge me whenever I sit down to watch TV. :)
And congrats on the book!
Karyn says
We are big book readers in our family, so we have books everywhere! I have my own bookcase in the living room, and my 12 year old daughter has her bookcase in her bedroom. Books that we are currently reading can be found on the couch, on the stairs, on the patio, and on the dining room table!
Sally says
Book Me! I have two huge Ikea bookcases filled with books,and you can always tell which ones are my favorites because they actually have some room so you can see the bindings/covers, otherwise the rest are all crammed in everywhere :-) The only books that aren’t on those shelves are my cookbooks, which I keep in the kitchen for handy referencing.
I already pre-ordered your book and will be attending the Nov. 28th book event in DC, but an extra copy would make a great christmas gift for one of my friends!
Whitney says
Book me! I work in publishing, so I have way to many books to have a favorite spot. But I do love my built-in shelves…that’s why I picked my apartment. :-)
Can’t wait to read your book!
Jill says

Megan V. says
BOOK ME! My husband and I were just talking about turning the only full wall in our dining room into a library of sorts and we went to pinterest for inspiration! As of now though, they are either still in boxes from our move three years ago or in our 3 bookcases.
I really hope I win!!! :)
Courtney says
Book me!
I’m at a loss! I used to stack favorite books in visible, prominent places so that I’d actually look through them. Now, with a toddler, I’m struggling to relocate them… I want them to still be loved and visible/handy, but inaccessible to curious little book-worm hands…

Our books go on the bookshelves in our living room. Although that is getting pretty full so I need to find room for the overflow books, or put all the kids books somewhere else.
Thanks for the great give away. Those are some pretty awesome books.
