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! We’ve been gobbling up so many design, decor, and home books lately that we thought it’d be fun to share some of our recent faves from our library.

- PRIZE: Copies of all of the books shown above, including signatures from us, Gretchen Rubin, Abby Larson, the Novogratzes, and Ana White!
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “BOOK ME!” and tell us…
- BONUS QUESTION: … what special place in your home do you keep your favorite books? Do they get a prime spot on your coffee table? Or do you have a large collection of faves that fill a bookcase somewhere? Maybe your top pick at the moment just lives cozily on your night table?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, Nov 7th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One

Alyssa says
BOOK ME! I have two book cases in my living room that I display all of my books on, and my favorites are grouped together by theme. Whenever someone comes over for the first time, they usually ask “so who’s the reader?” as they scan the shelves and comment on what they have/haven’t read. This book worm loves it!

BOOK ME!
I keep books absolutely everywhere. My husband and I are voracious readers, so our house is littered with books of all kinds. I keep my “book of the moment” on my nightstand, but you can’t really walk through our house without tripping over a couple!
Jenni says
Book Me! I am lucky enough to have a room in my house dedicated to books! It’s awesome!
Lauren Ridgeway says
BOOK ME!!

thanks!
Lauren
sarabean says
Book Me!
I keep books that make me happy on my bedside table. There are probably so many other more functional uses for that space, but seeing books there, that I love to read or look at fills me with joy. So if my lippy and glasses need to live somewhere else, so be it.
PS – Ahhhhhhhhhhhdore Nate Berkus!
Tara L says
BOOK ME!! To answer where I keep my favorite books, all of the above! My nightstand, in the built-in shelves around our fireplace, on our credenza/sideboard in the main/family room, another shelf in our basement/playroom. I saw your presentation in Cincinnati (got my book signed (yay!), also the Novogratz book!) and just received a copy of the one I pre-ordered from you when you announced your book was ready! So, if I win, I will have some of my Christmas shopping done! Thanks!
Annie M. says
BOOK ME! My favorite books are on my nightstand but my collection of favorites stay safely out of reach in my closet. With five kids I am encouraging to read I like to keep them up high so they stay nice.
SB says
BOOK ME!
I have bookcases filled with books. I can never have enough books!

“BOOK ME!” I love to keep books on my nightstand and in my bookshelves in the office and living room.

BOOK ME!
All my books are on the bookshelf.
Lena says
Book me!!! I would love to have an amazing library filled with books and magazines…but with an active two year old, we use the end table in our bedroom as our storage space. My two year old has made a career out of ripping pages from our favorite books and magazines.
Chaney says
BOOK ME! I keep my favorite hardcover books on the coffee table where I can admire them :).

J Val says
Book Me!
Evin O'Keeffe says
Book me! I keep my books on a bookcase behind my armchair. Easy to reach for me but out of reach for the little member of the family who just likes the sound of paper crinkling. It is a favourite spot to sit any time of day and inspiring authors literally backing me up.
Tif says
Book me! I keep all my books in the den.
Whitney says
BOOK ME! My most cherished books are now kept on my freshly painted bookshelves in our den :)

BOOK ME!! We keep all of our books in the huge built-in book cases in our living room. They are all organized by genre, of course, by my husband the English teacher. Books are sacred objects in our house!
