    Ohhhh me too! It makes me a little sad when I see people who only read on ipads or kindles. Long live the book!

    Ohhh these gorgeous pictures make me want to go directly to good will and buy the first bookshelf I see so I can fix it up and arrange my books so beautifully! Right now they're sitting in boxes in my bedroom.

    Glad to see there are some fellow pretty book lovers out there! When I was growing up, my parents build bookshelves on every wall of our living room, so the space was literally surrounded by books. It was so lovely. I'd love to do that one day myself!

    Thank you thank you for your sweet comment on my blog.

    You are so right about our twin-perfectionism--it seems so obvious looking back.

    Your blog is gorgeous. You are gorgeous. You create gorgeous.

    But more important, I'm so glad you are finding joy.

    xoxo
    Ann

    I work in publishing and have seen such a decline in independent bookstores over the last 30 years it is very sad. I'm so glad to see that you and many of your followers are still reading books and not kindles or ipads. There is something so comforting about holding a book.
    Come by for a visit over at my blog. I am your newest follower. Your blog is so colorful and fun.
