"I think we ought to read only the kind of books that wound and stab us." Franz Kafka
For any author who would like his/her book to be reviewed, contact me. Poetry books too are solicited for reviewing. However, there are some genres I tend to avoid. Feel free to ask me.

I must mention here that I read at my own pace and depending on my mood. Don't ask me to hurry.
So … the books that you own (however many there may be) … do you display them proudly right there in plain sight for all the world to see? (At least the world that comes into your living room.)
Or do you keep them tucked away in your office or bedroom or library or closet or someplace less “public?”
My books are all over the place. But I do have very big bookshelf in the living room. And lots of my books are displayed for everyone to see. And I even let them pick a book or two, if they so desire. On the condition they return those to me. I also giveaway books right off the shelves, if I don't wish to keep those particular ones. My nephews and nieces do take a lot of my books.

You are very generous with your books. I only let my sister borrow mine.

We also have ours visible, and if anyone wants to borrow one they can. In my opinion books should be shared.
I have books in more than one room but not really tucked away.
It's good to share books and it makes room for new ones.
stop and see mine and my giveaways.
I give away books, but only if I've read them or have decided I'll never read them.
I like to display my books. Check out my answer for this week's Booking Through Thursday
I like to display my books, but I have a small peculiarity...I like to remove the dust covers. Vb
