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

BOOK ME!!
I made hubby buy me bookcases to put up in the guest room, because all my fave books were in boxes still! (after 10 yrs of living here!) Now I can reach them whenever I want!
caroline says
BOOK ME! my favorite books get to be on the shelf in my living room. the rest live in the bedroom bookshelf.
Meg says
Book me! We keep books in every room of th house!
Pamela says
BOOK ME!
We created a library around the open stairwell on our second floor. I saw this idea in a model house and decided we could do it at home. Mind you, we are using hand-me-down and inexpensive bookshelves, not the beautiful built-in variety that were our inspiration.
Allison M says
Book Me!
My favorites are right on my nightstand… unfortunately it takes a while to read with a little toddler in the house… free time is an oddity!
CarrieK says
BOOK ME! The dogs will eat books, so they have to be nicely put away on the bookshelf!
Mary D says
Book me! We have books ALL over the house–built ins and lawyer shelves in the living room, cookbooks spilling out of the cupboards in the kitchen, piles of books stacked on end tables and bedside tables…you get the idea. We are book lovers!
Cathy says
Book me! In my mule chest.
Megan says
BOOK ME!
I have SOOOOO many books and I don’t have a place to display them right now. I told my husband in our next house I want a library room! :) Wishful thinking!
Neal says
BOOK ME!
We keep most of our books on bookshelves in our office, but any that we’re currently reading, just finished reading, or are planning to read soon are on the nightstand.
Maura says
BOOK ME! We just moved a couple months ago, so currently my books are on some ugly existing built-ins in the basement, and on my nightstand, and still in boxes. But I have the perfect place for the special books planned, whenever I get on that – we’re going to replace the stair rail in the living/music/reading room with a bookshelf like this one: http://pinterest.com/pin/218917231857534588/ I can’t wait!
Nicole M says
BOOK ME! My fav photography books live on our console table away from the grabby hands of my toddler, and my reading books are safely in my nightstand.

Book Me!
My favorite books are somewhere in the house, if it isn’t
A fav…I give it away.

BOOK Me. I have a few books on a night stand in our guest bedroom, the rest usually make their way to one of our bookcases until they are needed for inspiration!
Elizabeth says
BOOK ME! on a DIY plumber pipe bookshelf
Kelly Michelle says
Book me! Please!
I would keep it in my purse, even though it is pretty heavy looking, until I’m done reading it (for the first time).
Then it would go on the coffee table for all my guest to enjoy and envy.
Andrea says
Book me!
my faves are scattered all over the house
Carolyn Coulter says

Lauren says
BOOK ME!!
Since I have a lot of textbooks I paid an arm and leg for, I keep them in a pretty bookshelf in my living room, and then fav magazines on the coffee table. Hey, if I paid that much for them I’m not going to stash them away!! That’s where I keep my fun books too.
Emily says
Book me! Whatever I’m reading lives on my e-reader and ends up wherever I just finished reading. We still have a few “hard copy ” favorites displayed on a shelf but my hubby and I are both electronic now. Our kids, on the other hand, are nearly buried by books! (Thanks, Grandma!)
Lynette says
BOOK ME! My favorite books reside on my bedside table.

Carol S says
BOOK ME
Even though we try to cut down on book buying from time to time, we still have bookshelves stacked as full as they come. Someday I have high hopes for a library with massive built ins to house our collection…..

BOOK ME! My favourite books are always displayed on my coffee table where we sit every day and the book I’m reading is on my nightstand.

BOOK ME!!! My most recent favorites are on my night stand. My husband and I are currently working on some “built-in” bookcases for our seemingly NEVER ENDING piles of books!!! I can’t wait till they all have their own special place!
Erin says
BOOK ME! My books are all over the place. Generally there’s a stack next to my nightstand that only gets put away once it falls over by itself, or once I start stubbing toes.
Paula says
Book me! I keep them on my bookshelf since I live in a tiny dorm room.
Megan L says
BOOK ME!
… All my books AND my kindle sit on my night stand. I always have intentions of keeping them out on the coffee table or on the tv stand but they always end up right on my night stand.
sally G says
“BOOK ME!” I keep our books in the bedroom on the dresser, like a secret stash of smartness. :)
Kat says
Book Me! One of the biggest draws to our current home was that it had a spare room we could turn into a library. It’s my favorite room in the whole house!
Lynn says
BOOK ME! I have books all over – two shelves, one for cookbooks near the kitchen, one for all of the others. Plus books on my desk, in piles in other rooms, etc. Obviously I could use more books…
Sara says
BOOK ME! We literally have books in every room of the house. Cookbooks and cooking theory books in the kitchen, kids books in my stepson’s room (and scattered around the apartment), short stories and most recent reads in the master bedroom (we have bookshelves instead of nightstands), and everything else on the shelves in the living room. And, of course, whatever books my husband and I are currently reading float around depending on where we were reading last.
Julia says
BOOK ME!
Since we moved into our first house 6 months ago, we have yet to tackle our book collection, so they currently live in a pile on the floor in one of our guest bedrooms (aka storage for all the junk we haven’t unpacked yet). We have dreams of building some built-in book shelves to frame out a window in our sitting room, though! Someday…..
