I found a new fun blog to read, kimbooktu.com/She also works on a site/project called "Your Home Library" and collects and posts pictures of home libraries that users submit from around the world. yourhomelibrary.wordpress.com/ You can only submit one picture, and make sure to read the size requirements, but it seems really fun. I think I'll submit mine when I get home from work today. Just wanted to share, in case anyone is interested!

Zelda, I checked out both of those links. The home library one is really cool! There are a few I would love to have (Sam from the US on the first page, at least when I'm looking at it, has an amazing collection!)

Hey Kristie! You are totally right, Sam's library is amazing! I just hope someday mine will be like that too...
Great links zelda!

Cool site! I agree, Sam's got the best one so far. I wish I could send a pic of my prof's library, it's sort of a boudoir with a couch and some chairs, and floor to ceiling bookshelves on three walls (the 4th wall's got a bay window), it's amazing!

That sounds drool-worthy Jefie, hehe! And Sam's collection is stupendous - and so very neat! I hope he also has somewhere nice and comfy to sit down and read them all! *warning to everyone: beanbags are a BAD idea*

Sam's is very nice!
I think my favorite though is Kristina's - I really like the way it looks with her living room.

Oooh I also like Patricia's library on the second page. It's a little bit of 'organized chaos' but it looks so warm and cosy!

I've checked Anne doll is so nice. Sam's library is great but my favorite is Patricia's, it looks like a very comfy place to sit down and read.

I checked which one was Patricia's and I like that one too. It looks nice and cozy, a great room for reading. That's more what mine will probably look like, rather than Sam's lol

Yes, comfort is a must. How wonderful to walk over, pick a book from a vast collection, then take a few steps back and plomp yourself down on a couch and just read, read, read! Ideal!
