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

Book me..
Is it weird that I keep them on one of the shelves in my linen closet?
Lara says
BOOK ME! Floor to Ceiling bookshelf in the living room. I always rotate books from the shelves to the coffee table so we never neglect a good book!
Jen says
book me!
A shelf in the living room holds that latest; though we have piles of books all over the house.
Stephanie says
BOOK ME!
My favorites are in my nightstand, but they mostly live in bookcases in the living room. My husband keeps them in the bookcases, in the entertainment center, in his car, on the coffee table and desk in his office; everywhere except the gigantic bookcase he has in his office.
sam says
Book me!
My favorite books are the floating shelves flanking my fireplace. I think they add a lot of character to my living room.
Kristin says
BOOK ME! My favorite novels are in my bedroom bookcase. My favorite home, decorating and cookbooks are always out in the kitchen because I’m using them!
Angela says
BOOK ME!!!!!!!! Oooh this giveaway would make my day! As for a prime spot for books…. my husband just built me a coffee table that has a lower shelf, so I’m thinking some of my favorite pretty books will end up down there :)
Kelly says
BOOK ME! Books I’m reading currently live on the nightstand. Books I just love in general and need to be able to have at my finger tips live in a book case. Sadly I need to build a library addition.
Danzel B. says
BOOK ME!!! We have a small, midcentury home. We have bookcases and small stacks all over the house. My very favorite books, for the most part, are kept in the pretty new black square bookshelves in the living room. I put special dolls and knickknacks and mementos pertaining to the titles in the cubes with the books. Books I am currently working on reside on the nightstand, then move all over the house with me.
Audrey says
BOOK ME!
i have my favorite books in a bookshelf in my bedroom. If i am reading one, it will be on my nightstand.
kristin says
BOOK ME!!!
Jacinthe says
I have stacks of books everywhere in my house! My faves are usually on my nightstand, or in the kitchen. (I know, odd place to keep books!)
Elisabeth says
Book me! My books are rather nomadic. Whatever book of the moment follows me around the apartment (may end up on the bedroom nightstand, sitting next to me on the couch, in my purse, etc), whereas, my favorites are kept in a bookshelf in our living room.
Kelly says
BOOK ME!!
My books live in my dining-room-turned-library, though there are always stacks lingering near the couch and the bedside.
Thanks! :)
Jennifer says
BOOK ME! All of my favorite books are currently situated on my bureau between my favorite green elephant bookends (a Joss and Main find!). I am SO hoping to add these fabulous books to my collection!
Kara says
BOOK ME!
We are big nerds and my husband is a historian so we have a lot of books. We have a bookshelf for the non-fiction history books and a bookshelf for the fiction books. If it’s my favorite though, it’s probably on my nightstand!
Mary S says
BOOK ME!
We have two bookshelves in our living room with our faves… my husband puts my books that he isn’t fond of in our bookshelf that’s in the guest closet.
Ali B. says
BOOK ME! All my favorites are kept on a small bookcase by the front door. The bookcase was also my first DIY wood project!

Book me! My current faves are nestled safely in my night stand, away from the kiddos’ sticky little fingers. :)
Melanie says
BOOK ME!!! I pre-ordered through Amazon and received my copy of your book in the mail today, but I would LOVE to gift that one and have a signed copy for myself! :)
Priscilla says
Book me!
I keep all my literature books on bookshelves. We just made a spare room into a library so it’s fitting to keep all our books in there! But home design books go onto our coffee table!
AMG says
BOOK ME!
My favorite is Mere Christianity by CS Lewis. Always in my nightstand for inspiration. The rest are usually on my Kindle or the coffee table.
Amy says
Book me!
Kept my favorite books in my bedroom, until the roof leak last week (womp, womp).
Emily says
Book me!!
My favorite books are tucked onto the shelves on my desk or on the shelves mounted on the wall over our bedroom dresser – one of the few places our crazy kids can’t reach!
Lea B says
BOOK ME!
My “pretty books” live on my coffee table. They get rotated in and out depending on my mood. :]
Lizzie says
BOOK ME! I keep my current reads next to my bed, but my favorites are with all the others: shelved by spine color on the giant Ikea bookshelf that acts as a wall in our studio apartment.
callie says
Book Me!!
All over my house!
LeeAnne says
BOOK ME!
I keep my books anywhere my sweet “littles” can’t hurt them. ;)
Morgan says
BOOK ME!
I don’t have a great place yet. I think they would probably end up behind one of the glass doors in my entertainment center.
Diane says
Book Me!!
What a great prize! I always have a few books on my nightstand that I am in the process of reading. There is also an under bed storage box filled with books and a bookcase in our home office. I love books!
Jacinthe says
I forgot to write: BOOK ME!!
Maureen @ The Parkland Project says
BOOK ME!
We have some hand me down bookshelves from the hubs parents when we moved into our house. I wasn’t a big fan when we got them but they really are starting to pay off. Still need a paint makeover though.
Liz says
BOOK ME! My favorite coffee table book is the Design*Sponge one. I have so many DIYs tagged!
Kristan C. says
BOOK ME! My collection sits on bookshelves (that need a DIY makover) in our living room. I recently color-coordinated them and it looks so cute. My current reading choice is always in my purse or on my nightstand.
Lauren O says
Book me! I have a book case of my favorites, displayed in rainbow order. love it
Melissa says
BOOK ME! :)
We have a built-in bookcase in our living room that is filled to the brim with books and we have some favourites on our coffee table as well as stacks next to the bed. It’s safe to say that we’re a house of book lovers.
Leah McDonald says
Book me! Try to keep them all on bookshelves, but they tend to move all over the house!
Laurel says
BOOK ME!
I keep all my design books and mags separate from the other books stored on a shelf above my craft table. It serves as handy inspiration when I’m feeling creative!
Side note: I’m checking the front porch every 30 minutes today in anticipation of YOUR BOOK arriving from Amazon. It feels like Christmas morning!!! I can’t wait to crack that baby open.
Raquel says
BOOK ME! My favorite books live in the living room for everyone to see!
Lauren says
BOOK ME! I usually just keep the book of the moment on my bedside table, but when I’m finished they go to a bookshelf in my office. My husband used to take it all up with his medical school books, but now that he’s done with classes I’m loving having space for my books again :)
Donna Hoover says
what special place in your home do you keep your favorite books?
Generally, I have always had books everywhere. Beside the bed, in bookcases in the dining room living room, family room etc.
But lately, I have gradually been getting rid of a lot of books and replacing them with Kindle books.
sarah says
book Me! Can’t wait to check out your book!
Katie says
BOOK ME! I have stacks and rows of books everywhere! I love having a home filled with books, and I’d love to have these to add to our collection! Thanks!
Amy Kinney says
Book me! I keep my lovely design books right on my coffee table… front and center.
Patty S. says
BOOK ME!
I have books in every room in my house. My office room has a wall dedicated to just books as well. I love to read!
Mrs Patty says
BOOK ME. I keep mine near my night stand for lazy days of sleeping in.
