Oh, man. This is such an open-ended prompt, because who couldn’t sit here all day spinning fantasies of the things they would do if they won the lottery?
My fantasies have shifted since my medical issues have worsened – at the moment my #1 thing would be to move to a house with no mold, less air ingress for forest fire season, air conditioning and more space for bookshelves! I’d also spend a lot of money on experts who might be able to figure out what’s wrong with me (if House were a real dude, he’d be first on my list).
Once all that was done, though, I would definitely spend money on books and bookshelves. My ideal house would include some (or all) of these types of shelves.
. 
I mean sure, I’d probably buy a car, go on a vacation, start a scholarship and donate to some local organizations working for social justice, to support single moms, to help people with mental health issues etc. I’d probably go back to school and get my doctorate. I’d eat healthy and delicious food. I’d send my kid to private school. I mean, depending how much money it was, yeah, there are things. But when I’m dreaming, all the books, a place to put them and a place to read them are what I dream about.
What about you guys? What do you dream about? What would you do first if you won the lottery?
Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge is a blog hop hosted every Wednesday by Long and Short Reviews. The weekly prompts range widely, including both book-related and non-book-related topics. The idea is to get bloggers to interact, share a bit about their lives and connect with other bloggers. Visit here to join in the fun!
I absolutely love those library ideas! So much fun. I would love to have a house with one room being a dedicated library. Right now I have books in every room in the house… lol.
I would love to have an entire house dedicated to books, but a (large) room would be next best for sure! I also have books in every room, stacked in the hallway and on pretty much every available surface. It doesn’t bother me much – my entire dream for my life was to be surrounded by books – but others around me are less thrilled!
Those are some great bookshelves. I love those.
Thanks! I may have spent longer than anticipated browsing bookshelf and reading nook photos online….
I LOVE all those bookshelves and reading nooks… fill your house with them, and never read in the same place twice. <3
Yes, that’s basically the dream!!
You’re health is really important. I pray you get the help you need. Fantastic bookshelves.
Thank you. I’m doing my damnedest! I wish it were a simple case of just sitting down with an expert, saying these are my issues, figuring out what I need and DONE. Unfortunately it is much more complicated and expensive! Not about to give up though! Thank you.
Library shelves was definitely on my list, too!
I mean, look who we’re talking to. I doubt a single person who visited this post didn’t at least mention bookshelves in theirs (except for the people who were too busy reading to write one, perhaps….)!
All of those bookshelves are gorgeous!
