I love cozy little book nooks I think they are the bees knees! Having a place set apart where you can curl up with your book just enhances each experience. They vary in sizes and styles, but they are a book lovers little piece of heaven.

What great ideas! My favorite is the closet book nook. Maybe I’ll do this in my bedroom.

Definitely love the first one. The color, the ladder, the window. It really invites to us, the ones that need a window to look at while processing the reading…. Totally agree that these spaces need to be set up for children to enhance love for literature…

Jealousy is a curse – I wish we had the space for such nooks. I have an small room come office, full of books, but I don’t use it to’read’ for pleasure.
I’d collected so many books that I had to pack them in boxes and store them in the garage, and when they reached just under 20 boxes I had to start culling down to eight, because I wanted the car to be out of the weather . . .decisions, decisions, which book to give away, and to whom, because I wanted them to go to a ‘good home’. There must be a medical term for this type of consideration :-o)

A good idea Abbie, but In Australia our libraries are free, and I live quite close to one with thousands of books, and audio books, so I’d have too much ‘competition’. :-o)
Over a few weeks I took boxes to church and allowed friends to help themselves, and the remainder went to the Salvation Army – which, funny enough is near the library, but at least they would get some cash for them . . .recorded each book so as not to buy it again! .

Oh, I’d love to have any one of those book nooks, they’re all so wonderful. Unfortunately, we can’t access the attic (or it would be mine), so my book nook is my bedroom. I also don’t have many books, Only around 40 or so. Therefore, they’re all sitting in a cabinet with my 53 bookmarks, where I take them all out from time to time and read them….

They are, but I don’t have much space to put them, which is why you can see them everywhere: on my table, next to my bed, on my bed, in my library bag (where they’re not supposed to be XD), in my book cabinet, etc. a book nook would be fantastic if I could get one!

You can buy these netted canopies that are pretty inexpensive and easy to install, and they add a lot of charm to any comfy chair, papasan, chaise, or even a over-sized bean bag. Throw in a couple pillows, some twinkle lights, and some floating shelves and even the smallest space can have a cozy nook! I have a tiny space to work with so I’m always trying out new ways to have a space, until I can have the huge library of my dreams of course. 😀
