Booking Through Thursday

Here is this week's question:

So … the books that you own (however many there may be) … do you display them proudly right there in plain sight for all the world to see? (At least the world that comes into your living room.)

Or do you keep them tucked away in your office or bedroom or library or closet or someplace less “public?”


Most of my books are in my bedroom. I seem to want to have them as close to me as possible, if they could all pile on my bed, that's where they would be. I also have a spare room in the house which I've converted into a library/snake room (I have seven snakes, and their tanks take up a large amount of room). It's wonderful to walk into the silence of that room, reptilian eyes calmly watching as I sit down to read. One of my favorite places.
