One day I will have a house, and it will have bookshelves like that.

IN EVERY ROOM.

see i just want a house that has one of those old libraries. with ladders that move around the room, and possibly two levels to the library with a balcony running around the upper level.

And of course, you'll need to get a bust made of yourself.
This is going in my notebook titled "Things I Didn't Know about Surface Dwellers."

Oh hell yeah! I'd have to have dim lighting in mine...possibly an old dusty chandelier or a a tall tiffany lamp. And a comfy soft old armchair, and a cat! (But then, any room is better when it contains a cat.)

No no, that'd be the secret stonewalled passageway which led to the dungeon, of course! (The dungeon would also be where I kept my secret party place, complete with bar and swimming pool!)

i'm gonna have to go with kat or SubLet's suggestions, those are cooler. Of course if i could afford to have that kind of set up i'd also have a grotto, if you get my meaning.

oh and in the library, a fireplace (obviously well apart from the books) and some very comfy chairs.

Hi. My name is Gothia, and I have a book addiction. This is just the ones I could get to. I have more in the garage and storage barn. I also have some hiding under my bed, on my night stand, in my closets and if you look carefully around my favorite chair, there are milk crates with more books.

If I have my way. I'll turn the spare bedroom into my own personal library. Big cozy chair, daybed, tv/dvd player and a lot of nature prints - probably of my own photography tours. And of course all the walls would contain bookshelves. Unless I can get my dad to custom design one for me from floor to top of the major wall.

This webcomic, seen here is hosted on the free web host Comic Genesis which pretty much proves its not popular.
Oh noes! Read all about the tormented artist I am!
