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.

Book me! Most of my books come from the library, so any of the special ones are either on my side tables or next to my bed!
Stacey says
Book Me!!!
Sarah MC says
BOOK ME!
We have books in every room in our house, but the most special ones are right next to our bed. We have a tiny home, and we needed more book storage, but didn’t have room in the common areas for another bookshelf. So we ditched our bedside tables and now we have a pair of tall, dark, and handsome bookshelves flanking our bed! Our current reads, favorite books, and the really special volumes (such as the poetry books from my grandmother’s house) all reside on these shelves.
Kim says
BOOK ME!
We have books all over, but my most beloved are all in one square shelf in the living room. If someone comes over and spots one of the books there, saying something like “I loved this!” then we’re instant friends :)
Amber says
Book Me! All of our favorite books go on the shelf under the glass coffee table so that we can see and use them!
Katy says
Book me! We have built-in book shelves in our family room, where most of our books live. But I keep a special book of poems in my nightstand drawer and my kindle is kept wherever I last read!
Ryan says
Book me – I’m supposed to be building a bookcase for the lady of the house. Maybe getting some books will inspire me.
Christina P. says
BOOK ME!
I keep all my books (favorite and not so much) in four Ikea Billy bookshelves with glass doors on them. It’s nice to be able to see them all but not have to dust them :-)
Erica says
Book Me!
Jessica Allam says
Book Me! My faves live in 2 places – by the bed (upstairs), and in a bin just out of toddler reach (downstairs). If I leave them on the table, they “walk away”.
elizabeth says
BOOK ME!
books are kept all over my house!!
abby says
BOOK ME!!!!
my favorite books are on my bedside table, worn with love!

BOOK ME….oh please:)
Kylie M says
BOOK ME!!!
Love to put some pretty books out on the side table or switch them out with some pictures on a shelf.
connie says
Book me! My current favorites live on the coffee table and all eventually go in bookcases by the fireplace near similarly colored books….yes my books are arranged by color!!
Kacie says
BOOK ME
I have an awesome bookshelf built into the nook under the stairs… but honestly the book of the moment ends up wherever I was reading it last :)
Krysta says
BOOK ME! My favorite books are all over the place in my house.
(P.S. Your book arrived at my house on Friday. I may have neglected my children a bit this weekend).
Katie says
BOOK ME! Some of my favorite books are cookbooks, so I have a special shelf for them near my kitchen. I started using a Kindle about 6 months ago for other books, so my most recent ones are stored there.
Amy Asante says
Book me! Pretty please. These beauties would be going on my coffee table!!
Laura says
BOOK ME!
For books I actually buy (not borrow from the library) those reside on bookshelves in our office.
stephanie says
BOOK ME! I keep the ones I am reading on my nightstand and all of the others in our built-in bookshelves in the den (which is wood paneled w/ a brick fireplace and in desperate need of a “Young House Love White-verhaul”. I just made that up but i think it makes sense :)
Katie says
BOOK ME!
I have a special collection on my nightstand and an unending pile in our basement.
Kerry C says
I got my book in the mail today! So exciting! I obviously don’t need to win but congrats, it looks amazing!
Joanna Taylor says
“BOOK ME”. Yay! Always seem to get to your giveaways too late!
My favorite books are up high on an ikea shelf…they are a group of
signed children’s books that I have been collecting for years. My kids call them “mommy’s special books”. It’s most fun when I find one in a pile at the thrift store. Don’t know why anyone would give up a signed book. Would LOVE to have a signed copy of yours! Thanks guys and congrats!
Kristi says
BOOK ME! We keep our favorite books EVERYWHERE! On the coffee and side tables, nightstands, mantles and also on the bookshelves.
Kathy says
Book me! I keep all my books on two big side by side bookshelves in my living room. It’s my favorite part of the room :). I love books!
Kris says
Book Me!
My favs live on a sideboard in the living room, all the rest are in a bookcase in the family room.
Amanda Pearl says
BOOK ME!!!! My current book is always in my purse so I can grab anytime. My favorites are on a specific shelf in our hallway. They may or may not be alphabetized. Ha.
Marcia C says
BOOK ME!
We have some awesome printed ikea bookshelves to display our books and some of our favorites sit on a side table in our living room.
ACakeStory says
BOOK ME! I keep my fave books on the MCM walnut credenza in the living room, next to the TV. :)
Kristin McCormick says
Book me! I love all things books and home design so this would be the perfect addition to a new media console the hubs and I just built!
Bethany J. says
BOOK ME! I have a home office with built-in shelves that store my whole collection. Current reads usually lives on the bedside table. But I think all of these would live on the couch right next to me!
Logan says
BOOK ME! I love to keep my funniest books on a wooden tray near my couch. They’re great conversation starters when I’m entertaining company – especially “Pawnee, the Greatest Town in America” by the Park and Recreation writers. Never fails to crack me (and my guests) up :-)
Jordan says
BOOK ME!
I have about six bookcases in my house each filled with tons of books, but my favorites go on the bookshelf I use as a nightstand.
Johanna Larson says
Book me!
I keep my favorite books on a too-small shelf in our tiny guest bedroom upstairs, which currently serves as my “lady cave” with all my craft supplies and art things. I visit my books to lovingly page through them all once in a while, when the de-clutter bug bites, and every time they all go back on the shelf.
Pamela Hiar says
Book me! I have a new nightstand that has a great shelf for books. That is where I keep the best ones.
Mara says
BOOK ME (please)!!
My books go on a bookshelf in my living room — they are the first thing you see when you walk in the door. I also have a healthy stack on my night stand so I can do a little non-digital reading before bed.
Love that stack o’ books!
Meredith says
BOOK ME!
Unfortunately my favorite books are all packed away right now as we are remodeling. Otherwise, I like to keep them on a bookshelf in our spare bedroom.
Michal says
BOOK ME!
Ellen says
Book Me!
I keep all my favorite books in the bookcases my hubby built for me last Christmas…or in a pile on my night stand!
Cait says
BOOK ME!
Katharine says
BOOK ME!
I’ve got books EVERYWHERE, but my favorites live on some small shelves in my bedroom.
Kelly W says
BOOK MEEEEE! I have books living all over my house! Of course, my favorites are the ones stacked on the floor by my bed. You can’t only read just one at a time, right?
Allison says
Book Me!! The wall beside my bed has a great built in bookcase…it is getting nearly full, but I could definitely fit a few more!
Nancy says
Book Me! Right now most of our books live on the top bookshelves, away from little hands. The four year old and one year old see any book as fair game around here.
Kirsten says
Book me! I have a bookcase in the family room of our house with favorite books, but I think I would display these on a buffet or console as their own special feature.
Thanks!
julianne says
Book Me! My book of the moment lives in my sideboard… it’s a cookbook. Kind of sad that that’s all I’m reading right now!
Ashley says
BOOK ME!! All my fave books (as they rotate) have an area on the shelf under my nightstand so they are always within arms reach before retiring for the night. All of these books would probably be squeezed into this tight space as well if I were to be the lucky winner!
Maggie says
BOOK ME!!! We keep some photo books on our coffee table, mainly because I just like to look through them – the rest of our books live on a book shelf in our study.
Courtney says
Book Me!
My favorites usually occupy my tote bag that I take with me everywhere. That way I have easy access to it whenever I’ve got an opportunity to read. Once I’m done reading they go on a bookcase, to wait their next turn in my tote bag. I’m one of those types that goes back to their favorites over and over again.
