I looked around this weekend and realized there is not one corner of my house that does not feature some type of books.
I have The Great Artists (van Gogh, Raphael, El Greco, etc.) under a coffee table, paperbacks (tons of Stephen King, 100 Years of Solitude) in a tiny bookcase in the living room, and hardcover biographies of Tim Burton, Kurt Cobain, Charles Addams and Edward Gorey in the armoire.
My son has floating shelves from MoMA that give his room a very modern look.
(I also realized he is more well read than I am at this point, and he is only 18. Kurt Vonnegut, Ulysses, Nabokov, Tolkien, Cormack McCarthy, and C.S. Lewis are few that he read in the last year.)

Some first editions (Bram Stokers Dracula), my book 100 Unfortunate Days, and other antiques sit between beautiful cut out tree books ends.

There are more books resting in piles on the floor, piled neatly on tables, and tucked into corners. I only posted four pix--I had to stop somewhere.
Just wanted to share.

It looks like your bookshelves are well packed!
ReplyDeleteYes! And that is not even the half of it. :)
DeleteOoo a floating bookshelf! That's pretty cool. I've always wanted one. Sounds like you got a great book collection.

What I would love is an entire wall covered with shelves. Maybe my next house :) Thanks for popping in!
