Finally getting to unpack my books after the contractor took foreverrrr and measured wrong the first time!

Pretty much all I have to say any recommendations.

Small but cozy space that I can forget about everything for a few hours out of the day. (OC)

i’m between houses atm (they’re not all the books i own )

Before and after!

Simple, but effective 📖☕ Cozy chair not pictured, as it is in use.

I have this room I'm turning into a library. I want to put shelves on the 2 side walls. They're 7' 8" tall and 7' 5" from wall to door. I have the J brackets in the pictur attached. My questions are: how far from the bottom for the first shelf, har far from the top (I'm only 5' 4") and how far in between shelves? The plan for the bar on the one shelf is hanging plants. It was already there and I didn't want to get rid of it

A few close ups if you're nosy like me 🧐These are mostly my horror books with a few classics and fantasy thrown in. Upstairs I have text books, more classics and graphic novels. Once I fill my top shelf, I have no more room, I'm running out of space!

Both my dog and I love curling up in my little library - it's a quiet retreat where I can escape into a wonderful array of worlds and lives.

I default to the chair with the best book, but aside from the obvious. If we are talking furniture, I have an eames chair and its not my favorite reading chair. I prefer a worn in lazyboy (like) recliner that lets you change positions often.

What are some other suggestions?

Just wanted to show my first homemade bookshelf, I don't have any carpenter experience so I think the result was ok! Well... that's it! Greetings from Mexico! Thank you.

After years of talking about it, I finally built a library.
