This picture sort of blew my mind. I can just see myself going in, getting good and caffeinated and falling flat on my face…. but seriously, this is amazing. I have this plan in my head to make an NYC trip one day that is entirely book themed: stay at the Library Hotel, go to [...]

In my googling, I’ve been stumbling across more and more celebrity libraries. While I really don’t have any desire to be rich & famous, being able to have an amazing home library would be a bonus, huh?
Anyway, I think I’m going to start sharing some with you.
I saw this one for the first time last [...]

He started an organization called Room to Read with the goal of getting books to kids around the world, kids who would normally never get the chance to learn to read. He’s really making some advances and it’s pretty incredible.

I am totally exhausted today. We had a long, wonderful weekend with our friends and families in the town that we grew up in, but I came back just totally destroyed. Our drive back was extended by about an hour because we got stuck in a great little traffic jam. Behind a semi. Filled with [...]
As you guys, I’m sure, have gathered I’m a big time cheap skate. If I buy a book at full price, it is maybe the biggest day of my life. I tend to rely on thrift stores, my mama, and library book sales for most of my books. The library that we usually go to [...]

Who else but big old book nerds even know that it is National Library Week? In honor of Library week, our local library is plastered with little slips that say “I love my library….” and people can fill in the blanks. I saw some interesting ones when we were there the other day. ”…..because they [...]
