Last year I went to our local annual library sale at the fairground. This was the first I had heard of it and I now plan on going each year.
I live in an RV and the room is a problem. I converted the TV area into a coffee station with one side for coffee, sugar, etc., and the other a library.
When I go this year, I know I will go crazy and buy more than I should. I'm looking for ideas to show my future books without having to hide them.

Not Mine But It's Certainly Unique (Book Vending Machine In Madrid, Spain)
Narrow Hallway In Small House = Perfect Place For Narrow Floating Bookcase On Wall
You guys I can’t beleive this. In 2020 my family decided to move from Texas to Utah, and it did not go as planned. Instead of living w my grandma for two months and buying a house, we lived with my grandma for nine months and built a house. And it still wasn’t done, so we had to stay in an Airbnb for four months. This is the Airbnb I’m pretty sure. I have so many memories in that house. It’s where I came out to my parents, it’s where I got my first girlfriend, it’s where I truly began to find myself.
They Still Need To Be Organized, But I Think There Is Room For More Shelves And Books
Not Books But This Is How I Have My Albums Displayed :)
I guess it's not necessarily unique, but it makes me happy :)

My Bookcase Closet! (Closetcase)
Now that's what I need...except there would be no place to put my clothes.

Many Libraries In The House But This Is In My Cottage
No Room For Bookshelves In Tiny House But Art Room Has Deep Windows. Added Some Wood I Found In The Shed For Stability
Well You Know Not Real Books But I'm Very Proud Of It
Took me a while to see that it was a miniature, I was like "how much hot glue did they use on that ?!?" I love it
There Are More Books Behind The Front Row. And That Is Only My Small Library In My Room
Maybe Not Super Unique, But My Mom Has Always Color Coordinated Her Books And Artfully Placed The Tchotchkes To Cohabitate With Them
My (Mostly Horror) Books Along With Stuffed Animals, Some Art, & Leds
Not All My Books, But A Few Of Them, With Some Art And Pics :)
I'm not posting any of my bookcases; too much dust to clean first. But I love posts like these.
the house is long gone now, but my childhood home, built by my parents when I was one year old, held over 6,000 books at any given time, plus tons of great magazines of the day (1950's through late 90's, when my brother and I rented the house from Mom and Dad after they moved out of town to a country house). There wasn't a room in that little place that didn't have books, and I mean even the lone bathroom had them. We four were all taught to read very early, and we all grew up loving to read. My brother, when he bought the house from Mom and Dad in 1990, custom built a little bookcase for the bathroom because the one that was in there was far too large for that tiny space. Wish I had pictures of the house, but after bro sold it to our niece and her husband, much changed (still tons of books...she's a school teacher, he's a nerd (a good one)), and I no longer had access to the house, of course.
You are fortunate your parents raised you with a love of books. I don't use an e-reader, because there is nothing like the feel of a book, sight of a book.
