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

Book Me!! Between my husband and I, we have a ton of books, we’re well past the triple digits. Currently, we have two huge bookcases that we got from a garage sale when we first moved into our house. I have hopes of building a bookcase that spans an entire wall of our den. It may or may not include a sliding ladder if my childhood dreams have any say in the matter.
Graham says

BOOK ME!
We have a few book “homes” at our house – but my favorite is in an exposed soffit above the cased entry to our dining room. It’s an unexpected shelving area with a dual function, and it makes me happy! :)

Heather P. says
BOOK ME!
First of all, CONGRATULATIONS on the book!
As for where I keep my books…. I’m an English teacher, so they’re kind of all over the apartment. I try to keep them contained to a bookshelf in my home office, but that’s sometimes easier said than done. A lot of them end up on my nightstand, since I like to read for fun before bed (if I’m not burnt out from grading 50+ college essays!).
Samantha says
BOOK ME!
I keep my books on the bookshelf, but I keep a few more colorful/graphic books on the TV stand for some color.

BOOK ME!Books are placed throughout the house. It depends on where I think I’d enjoy reading it most.
Susan says
BOOK ME! I keep my favorites in three spots: a bookshelf or classics in our living room arranged with pictures and trinkets of our wedding and such; a bookshelf in our dining room with magazines (Real Simple, Parenting, Nat. Geo.) and a bookshelf in our hallway with books from growing up (Dr. Seuss and college too)! My ideal would be a separate library with bookshelves from floor to ceiling and wall to wall – one day…

Book Me!
My books are overflowing from a bookshelf built by my husband. He says I need to get rid of some of them but I’m pretty sure we’ll be buying/building a new bookcase soon. I find it impossible to get rid of books!
