Which of these book nests is your favorite? (I'm counting only the five people pods, not the cat's sleeping nook.) The third and fifth — from the top — seem about the same to me. Since I like to stretch out and get comfortable while reading, I pick the third — believing the guy in the green shirt has lots of room to stretch out his feet, if he chooses (unlike the girl propping her foot on a wall). If you have an alternative suggestion for a book nest, please tell us about it.

REPORT on DONNA
My roommate Donna had
knee replacement surgery on Tuesday, came home on Thursday, and has been doing her twice-daily exercises. She's walking and doing great. The apartment complex where we live has given her a handicapped spot with our apartment number so it's all hers.

Glad to hear that Donna is recovering well.
ReplyDeleteI'd never heard of book nests, but find it a fascinating idea! I'd stick to the bottom row because of my fear of climbing, but would prefer the roomier quarters of the blue shirted fellow.
Shirley, I don't think book nests exist anywhere other than in this artists's imagination, but it's a fun idea.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear Donna is recovering well. My dad is almost 6 weeks out and has his follow up appointment this week. I hope the report is good.
ReplyDeleteI also pick the third guy from the top. Definitely don't want to lie on my stomach or have to sit up ram-rod straight
As a teenager, I could lie on my stomach to read, like the fellow in the fourth one down. If I tried that now, I'd have back spasms.
ReplyDeleteSo happy to hear that Donna is doing well.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love the book nests! I also like the third one---I like cozy little spaces that I can curl up in. Or how about a book nest with a porch swing...and a window? :-)
