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.

Yep, I’m a bookworm all right. =)

Wrenaria says
BOOK ME!
I have a very large bookcase stuffed full of books and a small stack of books (Domino, Decorate, and a Monet exhibition book) on my coffee table. Usually whatever book I’m reading at the moment traverses the house, though can most frequently be seen on my nightstand when not being actively read.
This stack of books would make a lovely addition to my collection.

BOOK ME!
Sadly, our open shelves are full of the hubby’s work related books, whomp whomp. But, I have dreams that one day, when we aren’t in an apartment, we have all these built-in bookshelves that I can decorate with my favorite books that are in storage along with my favorite little trinkets. I think that’s about 3 years away… not too long!
