Paperback Princess: Friday Hops ~ Book Blogger + Feature & Follow #43

Book Blogger Hop hosted by Coffee Addicted Writer

Do you listen to audiobooks?

(Suggested by Elizabeth @ Silver's Reviews)

Awhile back I gave audiobooks a try because I found the time I spent in the car driving was a waste of time because I couldn't read any books, this was my solution, but my mind kept wandering and I kept having to restart...it just didn't work for me.

However, very recently I wanted to give it a try again and surprisingly enough I'm enjoying it a bit more now. I have also noticed that a good Narrator makes the difference. I have previewed all the audiobooks I've purchased because if I'm not happy with the Narrator I won't purchase it. My mind will still wander if the Narrator doesn't engage me from the start.

Next week @ Book Blogger Hop

Do you use bookmarks? If so, do you match them to the book you're reading or do you use random scraps of paper?

If you had the money what would your own personal library look like? What would be in it? What colors, decorations, etc would you put in it?

This question is lovely but alas I don't have the time required to answer this in depth as I would love to show y'all everything from rug, furniture to lighting, but I drafted the "Favourite movie" question...I don't quite know how I got it wrong :( So stay tuned for that post of my ultimate library, but for now here's a few libraries that I love.

So I love the classic look, and wish that I had this many books. I love the ladder and I'd definitely have one of those, along with the old library green lamp lights.

Neil Gaiman's Library

But realistically I probably won't ever own a place large enough to have libraries like those, so here are two doable looks in a smaller scale of course. I love the Shakespeare & Company's cosiness, I love the wooden planks on the ceiling.

The Nashville home one is more modern, but I like the white and airy feel to it.
