Today, over at Kelly's Korner, "Booklists" are being showcased on SUYL. I thought I would post some pictures of the "Reading Room" that I put together in a corner of our loft. It is a place for quiet time, especially for Darian, our son, to get in some quality reading. It is hard to get him to sit and read and having this room, with the dogs sitting at his feet, encourages him.
This room is pretty high up and I love having the woods in the background. |

These are some of them.....
Thanks mom!!!!
I tend to lean towards mysteries/crime novels so we have the same taste. I DO have a 2 page list of books to read in the next year and will start my list when these are done. I usually have 2-3 books going at once, including self help types and parenting books.
This is one I'm reading now:
This one was recommended by our son's therapist. It is pretty good.
Thanks for stopping by!!!!
Wow! All those books look so good!
ReplyDeleteWe obviously have the same taste in books, as well.
I like those book racks :)
ReplyDeleteOhh.... that parenting book looks like something I need to read! "Inflexible" definitely describes my 5 year old!

ReplyDeleteLove the room! I want one of those just for me.
ReplyDeleteA friend of mine reads Iris Johansen. I'm gonna have to add her to my list. I just finished 'The Quickie' a couple of months ago. It was .... different. But I liked it.
Those book racks are awesome. I just showed them to my hubs and asked him to make some for our two older girls to have on the wall by their bunk beds. Love them. Awfully cute kiddos. I read Brandon's story and he's just such a little doll. Thank you for sharing him and his story!
ReplyDeleteI love your book reading area! That is so cool! Erin
