Your own Library?

Have you ever wanted to (still want to) build your own library one day?

All of us here love books and enjoy being around them. But some of us believe in buying the books while others just borrow, read, and return them.

Do you want to build your own library one day? Where only the books you like are to be found? A collection of the books that inspired you?

If yes, then have you done any planning yet? How would you arrange them? What kind of books will be there?

^^ I would definitely love to! I almost never borrow books... I like to buy them so I can read them over and over :P I have about 400 books at the moment.... I'm running out of shelf space now :P

i wud absolutely love to hav my own library 😃 i already hav a pretty gud collection and plan on adding more to it..... i often wish sumone wud gift me a well stocked library 😆

^^ But that won't be fun :P

GREAT Topic Mahi!!

I would absolutely LOVE a library with my own personal desk. A sort of get away. My own sanctum..... Away from my brother and sister, who never let me read a book or study in peace!!

I prefer modern architecture and design, however within my 'modern' designed home, I would have an inbuilt library which is old fashioned library cum study with wooden flooring. You know the ones you see in like Sherlock holmes and old movies 😆 I would have all my books arranged neatly. My design books neatly stacked (I am a design student) on the shelf, then all my fiction books and a neat desk with a comfortable chair which I can relax and read my books. Ooh and it has to be dimly lit with a small window.....

As for the books, I prefer having my own copies of books - I hate sharing (I am not mean I just don't like sharing my books with people who do not take care of them properly 😆). I read a variety, I am not too picky. Currently I am reading The Great Gatsby and Fitzgerald has a a great description of Jay Gatz's library 😃

Haha now I better stop before I begin describing the book covers!! hehe 😆

Sigh... It was my Birthday last week and Dad asked me what I wanted ... I should have said a library hehe 😆 I wish!!

Once again... Great Topic👍🏼

Loads of Love Hannahxx

Well.......my mum has two rooms full of books......she is a complete bookworm :P and that makes our house sort of like a library.....but technically speaking...I'm not much of a book fan....I love reading books but only selective........and if I need to read a book  that neither me nor my friends have....I prefer to step into the library...... *wink*

oh i just want books,books and more books........i dnt care how i get it 😆

^^ Haha.... I prefer books that I pick out myself.... half of the fun of reading a book is buying it :P

I'd love to have my own library with my favorite books around! =D It'd be such a coolest thing. =P Currently, I'm sure my library wouldn't be too big. =/ But I'm sure in the future it would. =D

I just love buying my  books. That way, later on, I can go back and read it again and again whenever I want. =P
