House Hunting

The search for a new home for this bookworm and her Hubbin continues.  I think that since books are such a part of my life I should just move into a house like one of these.

Hobbit House

House of Books

Hubbin says that these are impractical 'cause I would just be constantly pulling the house down to read the books...I say it's super practical 'cause then we wouldn't need as many bookshelves...I guess we will have to see who wins.  Happy Reading Everybody!

Small Space Big Ideas

I have done a dream library post about the big sprawling stuffed to the gills with a zillion books dream space I will someday obtain.  I also realize that most people don't have rooms with ceilings so high you need a ladder to reach the bookshelf installed there. Here are some incredible little book nooks for people with a more limited space.

Closet Nook

Love this nifty little hideaway, can be done in almost any house/apt/condo.

Under Bed Shelf

Perfect, especially if you already shove half of your books under the bed :-)

Wall Nook

This would be great in a guest room or computer room where you might need the room to be multi-purpose

Window Seat Nook

I am a sucker for window seats, and this could be scaled to almost any size.

Teepee Nook

Sometimes you just can't modify your living space, so this portable nook is a perfect little get away spot.

Where do you like to go and read?  Are you cramped for space, or do get to have bookshelves with a ladder?  If every wall, floor, surface you own is covered in books, does that make your whole house the library or just the home of a crazy person?
