Fab Freebie: Book Worms Rejoice

***This giveaway is now closed – see who won below!***

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. So in addition to a signed copy of our new book, you’ll also be getting copies of the following (marked with an asterisk when signed!):

  • The Things That Matter by Nate Berkus
  • The Handbuilt Home by Ana White*
  • Design*Sponge at Home by Grace Bonney
  • Home by Novogratz by Robert & Cortney Novogratz*
  • Style Me Pretty Weddings by Abby Larson* (which releases next month)
  • Happier at Home by Gretchen Rubin*

BookGiveawaySMP

  • 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
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The United States (although we try to wrangle as many international giveaways as possible – more on that here)
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

Note: We aren’t paid or perked for hosting these giveaways, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info.

    I have too many books to count in my house and they’re in every room except the kitchen and bathrooms – but I have one shelf downstairs in my living area dedicated to my favorites. Congrats on the book release! I can’t wait to read it.

    My very favorite books rotate throughout our house depending on where I feel like reading them! My very favorites that I read through constantly rotate from my night stand to the side table in our living room. I also have some staple favorites that have a home on our coffee table and guest room for all to enjoy…and of course our “mini library” in our home office!

    BOOK ME! I love books so they’re all over my house! My office holds part of our library, as does my husband’s office. I display cookbooks on the buffet in our dining room. Our living room also holds a shelf of my favorites. Finally, I have a special side-table designated for library books/ anything else I’m in the middle of reading. What an awesome giveaway!

    BOOK ME! I arranged all of our books by color on a huge IKEA bookcase in our home office. It’s kind of a pain to rearrange when we gain new books, but since my hubby bought me a Kindle Fire for Christmas last year, that’s not a major problem anymore. I’m still very attached to my book collection despite going digital. I used to work at a library at the University of Texas where I amassed quite a few signed books, and I cannot wait to add your book to my collection when you visit Austin in January!
