Re: Do you have your own library
But we have book cases in almost every room in the house, and even in the guest house. I have tried to sort the books into different categories for different rooms. The Classics in the library, fantasy novels in the livingroom, romance books in the bedroom and childrens books in the kids room. All in all, there's cirka 2000 books.
However, in the past couple of years, I have grown to appreciate ebooks. I usually read them on my smartphone or the ipad.

Same I'm envious of those with libraries/offices. I'm currently in the process of searching for a reading chair and lamp for the corner of our bedroom right by the window. We live in a one bedroom apartment with very limited space and have one small bookshelf that is full. I bought a nook to save some space.Ealasaid wrote:My dream is to have a small room (or large one) or a cozy corner/nook with a window seat to use as my own personal library.

Agreed! I want my very own reading room with comfy furniture and tons of books. I already have two bookshelves full and am already out of space, and that isn't counting my 'to be read' books.

Exact same I would use that room as a reading room and convert my basement into a library to store my vast collection of books.Taylor Razzani wrote:Beautiful_Soul wrote:Ealasaid wrote:My dream is to have a small room (or large one) or a cozy corner/nook with a window seat to use as my own personal library.
But, currently my library is two bookshelves which are on the brim of collapse and a few drawers that cannot close all the way.

Yes. It is a mix of fiction, non fiction, etc. I have several bookshelves, space on floor, tables, etc. One day I wanted a room for all my books but I want to have certain views when looking outside. I also need a firelace in that room.
Blessings?
