With Jennifer’s permission, Coffee Addicted Writer relaunched the hop on February 15, 2013. Each week the hop will start on a Friday and end the following Thursday. There will be a weekly prompt featuring a book related question. The hop’s purpose is to give bloggers a chance to follow other blogs, learn about new books, befriend other bloggers, and receive new followers to your own blog.

This Week’s Question
Are books a must-have in your home? (Billy @ Coffee Addicted Writer)
I think so. I grew up always having books in my home. Do I need to have hundreds of books in my house? Probably not. But I would still choose particular books to always keep available for random rereads. There’s just something cozy about having a bookshelf or two from which to select a new read (or reread). At this point in time most of the books I own are unread, so it’s like having a library in my house. Which is perfect for when I don’t feel like going out to find something new. Having books in my house also encourages me to spend more time off my screen(s), including tv.
I couldn’t live without my books, and even the ones I haven’t read (and there are a lot!) are pretty special.
Haha same boat! I have a ton I haven’t yet read that are sitting on my shelves. Oops!
We always had books in the house when I was a child so it would feel very strange for me not to have any. It is nice just being able to go and pick a book off your own shelf.
I agree. I always had so many books to choose from in our home library. Many I think you’d be hard pressed to find now, especially some kids books since everything gets refreshed every few years.
My parents didn’t really read, but now I can’t imagine not having books around! I guess there are ebooks now, but personally I love having options on my shelf to choose from if I suddenly want to read something!
That’s surprising to see your parents didn’t read much considering that you and Krysta read and run a book blog together! I never would’ve guessed!
