Cozy Reading Nook – So Me
Not many words needed here. I am totally, madly in love with this reading nook. And that’s because, I am a huge book & art lover. I like my book areas to be organized but show life. I love the color gray. Seats should be comfortable with a capital C. Mixing old with new is my style (look at the ceilings and the industrial book shelves). Slipcovers work great with 3 young kids, messy huz & 2 spoiled cats. I crave daylight. I like just about everything in this room down to the simple reading light and the fresh flowers. (This image is going straight to my personal “So Me” file).
Happy new week to you all! I hope you all are off to a good start! Sending you warm thoughts and good energy. Hug, Monika.

Count me in! I am a real serial reader and can disappear completely for hours behind a good book!
(Har du last Viveka Stens bocker? Som Camilla Lackberg..).
Missing a table though. The water-o-holic I am, I do need somewhere to leave my drink..

oh how couldn’t you? simply dreamy! slipcovers are a must-have for me two… with 2 boys, 1 spoiled huz, 1 spoiled kitty and 1 spoiled pup!
I love it, too… That ceiling, and slipcovers, and light…and books. Not to mention the stack of books on the right of the frame – so sculptural. Good to read and pleasing to look at.

Oooooh, this is beautiful! I think I could spend days in that one spot, and never feel bored. What a great image to kick off the new week. Happy Monday!
Aaah! I could so easily become a hermit if I had THAT cushy chair and all THOSE books! Add the champagne and sweets from your prior post and make that a happy, fat hermit!
Oh, I used to have one but then I downsized
I am SO with you here. Combine books and gray and you have heaven. My little den has a bookshelf wall and I am just thinking of painting those gray. It will be a lot of work, but so worth it, I think!
Oh I love this! It looks so very comfy. I could spend all day in there.
I want a couch similar to that .. white slipcovered & cozy. Hopefully one day soon!! xo
My family would never get me out of such a lovely space…sigh. Sending you lots of love for a great week. xoxoox
Love, love this room, and look at the fabulous ceiling!!

Thank you so much for such a beautiful blog!/Linda
Yep, big fan of books and i simply cannot have enough..finding the time to read is the tough part these days. I love floor to ceiling bookcases.
Have a super week! xo
You are my inspiration for my new home!
I love that bookcase, perfect for my boyfriend’s “office”!
How are you!? I really hope you are ok and I wish you a great week!
I could spend days and days in there! And look at that magazine collection on the top shelves!
Oh so cozy and comfy… I see why you love it so much!
An escape to anywhere!!

Wow -vilket underbart ställe! Sådär önskar jag få till det när vi får tillbygget klart
Hoppas allt är bra!

Oh I love this – you could just sink right into those big cushions! A comfy spot, such a selection of beautiful books – and now all you need is an afternoon to yourself!
I’m so with you on this one! Minus the cat, you could substitute me for you and I agree with every sentiment. This is wonderfully inviting. I would never leave!
Oh my goodness, I just want to live in this room! I love everything about it!!!
I agree with Ally — I would live in that room…spending my time curled up on that great sofa with a blanket, tea, my pup and a good book…every once in awhile looking outside or admiring that gorgeous ceiling
[...] exactly which one to send. I am sorry, Ally dear (and to my many readers) that I keep on recycling this image. But if ain’t broke, don’t try to fix it! And the same goes for good design and [...]
