I know you're probably tired of all my book posts. But I'm obsessed. I'm a bohemian bookworm through and through. I've got piles of books lying around my house and any piece of stationary furniture has the potential of becoming a permanent book depository. On my side table right now:
The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver,
French Women Don't Get Fat by Mireille Guiliano,
Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott and Shakespeare's
King John (I'm working on a Constance monologue for an upcoming audition.)
Ha- you should see my family room wall of books which, by the way, sadly has been filled up for 2 years now. I need to make a donation to Half Price Books...
ReplyDeleteWhat would a home be without its books? I would be lost.
Very inspiring and a perfect post for me. We just moved into a loft and the bedroom has a lofted bookshelf with a ladder! I can't wait to fill it with all my books. Thank you for the beautiful images.
ReplyDeleteHa...you should have ended this post with a very clean looking room with a kindle on the coffee table.
ReplyDeleteActually I use my kindle constantly, but some of the old books and a few of the new specialized ones aren't available this way...so I still have piles of books!
Adore these images and I must read "French Women Don't Get Fat"!! Need all the help I can get. A bientot.
ReplyDeleteLove Anne Lamott!
ReplyDeleteTell me you've read 'Operating Instructions!!!!!'
Oh yes Anita - "Operating Instructions" was my first introduction to her work. Someone I love gave it to me when I was pregnant with Walker five years ago. It's my favorite!
ReplyDeletewow i love this post so much. if i could spend all my time reading i totally would! I love barbara kingsolver so much, mostly because 'a prodigal summer' is for sure in my top ten favorite books!
ReplyDeleteI love books too! I have a book buying addiction but at least I get them second hand most of the time. I also cannot let go of them. I have no bookshelf in my apartment so they are stacked. Beside my bed I have a stack of about 75 books I have yet to read. It makes me so excited!
