That's what we did. We have 24 large book cases and books in almost every room. Even our night stands are small book cases.
Our dining room is more of a dining room library.

Wow Christine that is a lot of book cases. Did you buy the ones you have to build?

"By means of our myths and legends we maintain a sense of what we are worth and who we are. Without them we should undoubtedly go mad." --Michael Moorcock

I guess that also answers a previous question of why I read.

My husband was a carpenter first, before he became an engineer. He built most of them. When we met in 2006, I did bring 4 or 5 Mainstay book cases from Super Wal*Mart into our relationship and he had a few book cases, but it was not nearly enough. So he built book case after book case. Even a special Enid Blyton book case for my birthday in 2013.

We bought the lumber at Lowe's and then my husband built them within an hour or so. He's very skilled.
