Definitely my bedroom. With a toddler able to reach everything I'm trying to keep away from her, I'm protecting my books by keeping them in there.

My father used to have a huge library in the living room but nowadays I mostly read ebooks. The only physical books that I have are on the bookshelf in my bedroom.

Our enclosed garage probably has the most, as the walls are lined with bookcases, but I have two full bookcases in my bedroom, and my sister and parents both have shelves/piles, and we have a built-in one in the living room... Excluding bathrooms, I don't know that there's a single room in the house without books.

That would be the Library definitely, there are books from elementary school there and a lot of paperbacks. Its solace when I need to be soaked from a painful day

Second is my bedroom, with recently grabbed documents and books all over.

Really, Bri?
That's Amazing.
Imagine that in my house, a lot of the books would end up in tears (literally) because of the kids.
I envy you.

My living room contains the most books. I have moved multiple times and don't have as many books as I used to😔. But I do dream of having my own library one day.

The garage and the office in my house contain the most books, but they are not novels and story books. They are moreover encyclopedias, dictionaries and reference books. There are even some old notebooks lying around. There are not as many books as I would like there to be in my room.

Currently, our den is the only place big enough to hold my books. We have a floor to ceiling book shelf and I have taken up the majority of that. The rest of my books are scattered throughout the house, haha!

I would say my bedroom. I like reading while in the bedroom cause it's mostly the only quiet place in our home away from many distractions
