Reading Spaces: Shelves & Chairs.

I am a book junkie. It's no secret. Books act both as my therapy and as my psychosis. I have a dream to some day incorporate a dedicated reading area into my home. A place to find silence and tranquility. A place to sit and unwind, get lost in the written word. A place to feel my books.
I've started carousing for some ideas of various elements that are reaching me right now.
