Bookshelf envy

[shewhomust]

In the 'interiors' feature of yesterday's Guardian, Lucy Mangan shows off her new library, and very splendid it is, too.

I was a bit surprised how long I had to squint at the pictures before I spotted a book I recognised - it was Marilynne Robinson's Gilead; then I found Shirley Conran's Lace 2...) But where are all the children's books?

I was eyeing that library space myself with admiration and envy. Most of the collections one sees photographed are for show not use, and this is such a comfortable space.

As is your own collection, of course ...
