Books, Books, Books!
And while I am on the subject of books, a few things...
Isn't this dreamy?
I'm swooning over this cozy atmosphere. Nothing appeals to me more than a wall full of books-- and to have them piled above you as you sleep?! You could actually breathe books while you dream! You know, the scent of old books, or better yet--the bookstore? You know what I mean.
Now that I have finished Water for Elephants, I am focusing on September's Book Club read, Care of the Soul by Thomas Moore. I'm also working on Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott.
How about you? What are you reading? Any suggestions for me?
xoxo,

I LOVE books too! I just finished "Same Kind of Different As Me" last week and really enjoyed it. I recommend it! Happy Reading!
Jeez that room looks like the definition of my nightmare! Hmmm.... I wonder what that says about about my personality? Hope you're enjoying your birthday week:)
Oh I love this post! I know you'll love Care of the Soul.
Ah yes to be sleeping there with the scent of books running through your veins...I would love it! They really would be 'sweet dreams'
So... this is SUCH a clever post & you have the most gorgeously brilliant site here. It's all perfect !
I had to stop by to leave this comment for you – and to say hello of course ! Thank you for sharing it all and have a great Sunday....
LOVE that room! And yes, I've just finished a couple really good reads: The Prize Winner of Defiance Ohio, and The Middle Place. Both are true stories and amazing reads.
