Hi everyone!

This has probably been one of my MOST requested posts to do! So, I figured why not do it?

PLEASE READ: Before we get started, I’d like to let you all know that I have around 125 physical books, many were bought by my parents/family and I, while a few others I received for review! I am not bragging about how many books I have, I am just simply doing this because it is VERY HIGHLY requested!
Enjoy!

Here is an overview of all of my books. I keep my library down in my basement, in a huge wall unit that goes all across the basement wall. My parents share this space with me, so I didn’t feel comfortable sharing the entire thing.

This you do not see in the picture above, but I cleared off some space a few months ago for more books, but for now I have my childhood favourites on it.

Here is my first shelve. On here, I store my all time favourite books, as well as popular series’ I have to read/complete.

On the second shelf I have most of my hardback books, as well as my Harry Potter paperback-UK editions.

On the third shelf, I have most of my smaller paperbacks, along with my fathers book holder that compresses my National Geographic Kids Almanacs, as well as my favourite non-fiction pieces.

Underneath, is my last shelf, which includes my favourite middle grade books.

On to the second shelf, which includes some of my favourite paperback books, along with 2 hard covers and a book that I was sent for review, called “The Only Boy” by Jordan Locke. On the very right, I have my Kobo e-reader, click here to see my review for it: https://readingreadingalldaylong.wordpress.com/2014/04/01/kobo-touch-review/

Next we have paperback books that are on my TBR, as well as a collection of books I was sent for review. Hiding on the right is “The Giver” by Lois Lowery.

Lastly, but certainly not least, I have some more of my TBR paperback books, as well as my favourite Disney picture books, and a fairy tale retelling series.

This concludes my book shelf tour for the begining of 2015. I hope to do one of these each year, to see how my book shelf has changed! If you want to know a specific books title, include the number of the picture (count all of the pictures until you get to that one), and try to count the book it is by starting from the left, and counting until you reach that books number. Leave that info in the comments below, and I will be sure to get back to you ASAP!

Good Night Book Lions!

Hi everyone!

Today I’m going to be posting something that I’ve wanted to get to for a while! I haven’t seen many of these, but I figured I would do one! Today, I am going to be showing you a tour of my Library!

I live in Vaughan, ON and I’m going to be showing you thru one of my most frequent Library’s that I go to. It’s called the Vaughan Library: Bathurst Clark Resource Center!

This is what it looks like on the outside! All other pictures were taken by me, approximately 3 weeks ago.

This is what it looks like when you walk in through the front doors. On the stands, you will find featured books, that relate to the season or time of month. They also could be New Releases that the library just bought! And, section in the back is ALL of the YA books!

Right when you turn around the corner, you will see this self! It is dedicated to on Sale Books! Hardcovers are $1.00, and paperbacks are $0.25! Movies and CD’s are about $2.00-$3.00! This is a great way to get some great bargains on books, while still supporting your local Library!

If you walk a few steps after that, you will see an AWESOME Water Bottle Re-Filling station! This may not be book related, but I just HAD to include this cool feature!

Now what you’re all waiting for! Here is the YA/Teen area! It includes benches and desks in the middle. I would’ve taken a picture of them, but there were people doing work on them.

Those were some pictures of the YA section!

Right beside of the YA section, is the Graphic Novel area! See any of your favourites?

Let’s head on over to the Children’s section, shall we?

In the center there is a HUGE carpet on the floor in the middle! It may not seem like it from this angle, but it’s awesome and has been at this library FOREVER!

Those were some pictures of the Children’s book section! See any of your child hood favourites?

There’s Super Man!

Those are 2 pictures of the Children’s movie section, which I sadly go to WAY to often!

Now let’s head over to the Adult Fiction center! This a picture of the mass paper back book sections! Do you spot the cool Water Bottle Re-Fill station in the back?!

Here’s a picture of some of the awesome Adult Fiction books! See any of you’re favourites?

Here’s the Adult Non-Fiction center. In this picture you see some of the Law books!

Here is the shelf of reserved fiction. On the white stickers, it shows the last 8 digits of your Library Card Number, as well as your first and middle name.

Lastly, here is the Adult/Teen movie section!

I hope you enjoyed this tour of my Local Library! See any of your favourites in the pictures? Let me know in the comments below!

Hi everyone!

Back by popular demand, I’m doing another blog series for February (which I have kind of been hinting to)! It’s called February Flurries!

Before I explain to you how this is going to work, here are some FAQs:

Will I be doing a blog series every month?

No, I will not be doing one EVERY month, maybe every 2 months!

Why do you keep doing blog series?

First of all, when I did my Holiday Reading Series, my stats SKY ROCKETED! Second off, many of you liked knowing my posts for February, so you could come back the days that you wanted to read that specific post.

Will every blog series have a theme?

Not really. This month I’m trying to do wintry/school based topics of posts. I will always try to include popular posts, such as, Book Reviews, Book Tags, Hauls, etc.

Hi Everyone!

Today I’m going to share with you one of the biggest tips I can ever give you, SCHEDULE YOUR POSTS/CONTENT!

I’m not sure about any other blog domains, but here on WordPress, you can create your content in advance and post it on whatever day you want! Here’s a little secret, I like to pick a weekend where I schedule at least 1-2 weeks worth of content! In fact, I’m scheduling this! For readers this is January 7, but as I am typing this, it is January 3! Crazy right?

I even like to start planning out for future months or even years! I like to get a good idea of what I’m posting, so I can figure out when to post ARC Reviews, and things like that!

I hope that this was helpful for you!

Good Night Book Lions!
