This week’s Weekly Geek was basically photos of my books and reading nooks. (Well, they’re not nooks, but I liked the rhyme.)

First stop: the chair where I do most of my reading. It’s in the basement, near the TV, mostly because…

I read while these two — that’s A and K — watch TV. Usually, at least one of them is sitting in the chair with me!

Though, when I want peace and quiet, or I’m just sick of kids, I head upstairs to this corner of the living room to read.

Stop two: book piles. This is M’s to-be-read pile from the library. It’s not as high as it was during the summer because she’s discovered there’s a lot of homework associated with 7th grade!

And the corner where I keep all my to-be-read books. It’s not that big right now, either — I’ve had the pile on the dresser up to nearly the top of the lampshade before. Maybe I ought to work on that…

Stop three: our bookshelves. We don’t have as many books in the house as other bibliophiles, mostly due to my hangups with buying books (you should see Hubby’s work shelves… alas, he’s on a work trip, so I can’t get into his office right now…). But we have at least one in every room. Except the bathrooms…

Stop four: other’s WG posts. Go check out these photos: Suey’s dream libraries (I’d love a whole room dedicated to books, too… granted, I’d have to buy them first…), a wonderful collection of bookish photos at Restless Reader (also gave me a Halloween costume idea!), and the eclectic collection at Mysteries in Paradise.
