  1. Is this a joke, wait, it isn't April Fools Day, yet...I can't imagine living a life without books. What do these people do with their lives! I really like some of those reading nooks, especially the first few...I would never get anything done if I had a place like that in my home.

  2. What a great post...and what Shocking statistics.... My husband and I are readers. Perhaps his vocation (Pastor) is part of the reason...but myself, besides reading through the Bible several times...I love books, children's books, novels, biographies...I don't have a Nook....but I do have a "spot and a book" Thanks for an enlightening post.

  3. I have always wanted a reading nook, like the first two photos. Or the very sweet bed nook with the white curtains.
    But I have a library room with a fireplace that has a comfy chair.
    I can't believe that chart. even with my brain/eye problem I am still reading. Very slow but still reading. My family all received books as one of their Christmas gifts.

    cheers, parsnip

  7. We have three reading nooks in our house, but none are as fabulous as these. You should know that the man who created that graphic recanted it in 2012 because the stats were questionable. You can read his post here: http://www.robertbrewer.org/disciple/surprising-book-facts-infographic/
