books, books and more books

karl lagerfeld had it right when he said "books are a hard-bound drug with no danger of an overdose. i am the happy victim of books." for me, there's something about books that is reassuring; i know that if i'm in a bad mood i can go to my local bookstore and peruse the shelfs and instantly feel better. maybe it's because books can transport you and it's fun to get lost in someone else's world for a few hours.

these are some great pictures i have found of home libraries, which is something i know i will have one day in my own house filled with books from around the world and every genre. and i know my mom is probably laughing right now if she is reading this because i won't have my own house for quite a while but a girl can dream!
