WOW! Mitzi, your library is incredible!! Your husband did an amazing job with the room and I love how you've organized your collection! I also LOVE that chair!!
Beautiful space! I love Daddy-long legs & the House of Mirth so I was thrilled to see those pulled out. Also, love seeing a space for Mary Stewart & D.E. Stevenson-two favorite authors of mine :)
The Lilies of the Field is a favorite of mine. Beautiful library. A lot of books I want. 😁 Thank you so much for the tour. I always try to tell people that there is a difference between someone who likes to read and someone who loves books. I love books and also love to read.
What a beautiful library, Mitzi! It was to see what's on your shelves and how you've arranged them. I loved the Choose Your Own Adventure stories when I was a girl. I noticed some Redwall series books on your shelves. My boys loved those and read everything one and anything else Brian Jacques wrote. I remember reading Early Will I Seek Thee by Eugenia Price years ago. I learned to love he writing from the Savannah series and then wanted to read more by her. Enjoy your new space!
I don’t think your chair is ugly either, I actually quite like it! Your library is gorgeous, your husband did a fantastic job. Your books are beautiful and I love the way you’ve organized your library. You have many of my favorite authors as well, I would feel so much at home there😊
Your husband did an amazing job. The space is beautiful. I love the chair, it reminds me of my granddaddy’s chair! And your collection of Nancy Drew, Hardy Boys, and Bobsey Twins is terrific and brings back my childhood. I love your collections of various genres and authors.
Thank you for sharing your library. I love a good sticky beak at people's collections and the excitement when you spot a title you own! Congratulations on becoming a Grandma.
I absolutely love how you did this! Just showing us the section of shelf and giving us an overview of the books listed. I’ve seen it done a few different ways and I really like how you did this. Pure fun! ☺️
Wow, how great. A fantastic room. You’ll have so much fun. I recognised many of my own books there! Hey Mitzi, would you consider talking about Flannery OConnor? I’d love to hear you explain why you like her and what you think she’s all about. I read a bunch of hers in college but I don’t think I understood her at all. I need to give her another look now that I’m older. I was interested when you said you liked her work.
Thanks, Janet! That's a great idea! I do think I need to do just that. So many read her as assigned reading and yep, comes across just violent and weird. I'll make plans to do that- thanks!
Your library is just awesome!! What a special way your husband supported you in your love of books and collecting!!❤. I love the floor to ceiling design, I understand when you say a dream come true!! Wondering which Elm Creek quilt book you still need? I'll be on the lookout😅
First of all your husband is the best!!! 🙌 That library is perfect!! 😍 I paused so many times the video to read the titles of the books 😝 Thanks for sharing with us that beautiful bookish paradise ❤
I LOVE this library room! Hubby nailed it. So fun to see your collection. I have my first library room (also a tiny bedroom) and so I understand that daily joy of walkibg in there!❤ I loved Bridges of Madison County. Also read it when young. It made my keep shelf.
Hi Mitzi! Beautiful new library! Your husband did a wonderful job! In the area behind your desk you could put in a TV screen where you could connect to TH-cam. That way you can play cozy reading ambience rooms to fit the mood of the books you're reading at the time. Just a fun suggestion. What a wonderful space. Thanks for sharing.😁
Thanks for sharing your awesome new library with all of us. Kudos to your hubby for a job well done. I enjoyed seeing all of your books. You said we could ask about any books that we didnt see. I didnt notice any Pat Conroy on your shelves. Just curious if you have ever read any of his book. He is one of my favorite authors.
Your library is beautiful! Your husband did an incredibly impressive job. I think I spied Savannah by Eugenia Price in the window set. I highly recommend that quartet. Added bonus, many of the places in the book are real and you can visit in Savannah - especially the house with the night ceiling.
Thanks for sharing your library. It is a charming space....just like you. I love the vintage planters you have your bookmarks displayed in. A few years back my husband and I were traveling through Iowa and we went to see the bridges in Madison County.🤩
I never hear anything about Wonderland Creek, so I'm happy to hear someone feels the same! I haven't read Chasing Shadows. I'm adding to my list right now- thanks!
It's so good! Banner of Truth usually offers a great sale on the set around the end of the year. You can sign up for their email so you can catch their deals.
@@mitzireadsandwrites Thanks, I'll keep an eye out for that. I recently purchased All Things for Good by Thomas Watson ( Puritan Paperbacks) from Banner of Truth and it's a great read.
Read Footsteps in the Dark by Georgette Heyer to see what her mysteries are like. I think she wrote only 12 mysteries. My favorite inspector is Hemmingway but there is a Hannysyde also. Then read Why Shoot the Butler? I have not read the other Heyer books you own yet.
Wanted to say congratulations on being a Grandmother! And Wow! What a nice Library! Thanks for sharing this part of your life with us! A book I just finished is June Bug by Chris Fabry. He wrote The War Room. It was a 5 star for sure. I could not put it down! I had to find out what happened to this little girl! He is quickly turning into a favorite author of mine!
Thank you for sharing your lovely library, Mitzi. It is heavenly! Your husband did a wonderful job. That's an example of true love right there. 💜 (I really suggest you marry him all over again!) 😊
That was a lot of fun to watch!!! I saw you have The Parasites by Daphne du Maurier on your shelf. Have you read it? Did you like it? I have to admit it's my least favorite book of all time that I've read. 😂😂🤣
uh-oh 😂No, I haven't read that one yet and the last two I read weren't good at all- maybe I should wait to read that one - don't want 3 bad du Mauriers in a row. 😂
Of the Georgette Heyer, I would say to read Cotillion if you want a humorous Regency Romance or Footsteps in the Dark if you want a more light-hearted but Golden Age mystery.
Ok, thanks! They both sound good. Maybe a humorous Regency during Jane Austen July!! Think I'll pull it from my shelf and add to my Jane Austen reading.
Thanks for taking us through your library. It was fascinating! Having just read Rebecca I was very interested in your DuMaurier section. Have you read Don't Look Now? What did you think of it? Thanks again for sharing with us!
@@mitzireadsandwrites I've seen the Don't Look Now movie and it was very creepy and disturbing and I've always wanted to read the book. It's now on my TBR list along with My Cousin Rachel which was also a very good movie, with Olivia DeHavilland and Richard Burton. Thanks for answering me. I really love your channel. I learn something new every time. You must have been a fantastic teacher!
Thank you for sharing your beautiful library and all your wonderful vintage books! Your husband did a fantastic job! Enjoy your special reading space!

Your library is beautiful! Wonderland Creek by Lynn Austin is a favorite of mine too. 🥰
Your husband did a splendid job

Thanks! I'm keeping my eyes open for more of those middle grade series.
I think you did a good job filming your library. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks! I'm learning as I go!
I love MC Beaton!!! And of course Agatha Christie. I have the same Hobbit edition, wonderful illustrations. 😊
Thank you for sharing your library. I love a good sticky beak at people's collections and the excitement when you spot a title you own! Congratulations on becoming a Grandma.
Thanks! Becoming a grandma is the greatest!!
What a beautiful library! So fun to see your collection! Enjoy! 😊
I forgot to add you did a great job filming💕
Beautifully done!❤😊
Thank you for making the time to share this!! I'm taking my birthday weekend to reorganize and sort through my books. This is inspiring.

Thank you so much because I have no idea what I'm doing!!
My favorite Grace Livingston Hill books are Found Treasure and The Obsession of Victoria Gracen! Funny! I'm currently reading Fall of Marigolds!
Oh wow I've seen the South Carolina book before but I wasn't sure about it, Definitely gonna get it if I see it again!
Your library is stunning! Love it❤
Amazing collection of books! I love all things vintage too!😂
Your hubby did a great job!
Thanks! Hope to add more vintage to my collection. 😂
Wow! Great library.
Your husband did a great job!
I am having some serious book envy, what a beautiful library Mitzi, your hubby did well!
Thanks, Sonia!
That is just heaven Mitzi. So lovely.😊
I love that Ephesians commentary! It’s an incredibly deep dive into the book. I had to read it when I was in Bible college, it’s fantastic.
I didn't know you went to Bible college! fun fact!
Wow, how great. A fantastic room. You’ll have so much fun. I recognised many of my own books there!

OMG that chair... I still have my teacher's chair from my first year teaching! I totally get it!
Right? There's just something great about a good old comfy chair.
First of all your husband is the best!!! 🙌 That library is perfect!! 😍 I paused so many times the video to read the titles of the books 😝 Thanks for sharing with us that beautiful bookish paradise ❤
Thanks! I tried to go slow enough because I love seeing what others have on their shelves, too!
Thumbs up for handy husband, too! What a special spot for what you love! ❤
Yes! It's the perfect spot.
Beautiful library and collection of books!!
This is amazing! Enjoy! 📚

I do love reading ambient rooms!
You've got some good C. S. Lewis books!
I'm slowly collecting them. I really love his writing.
❤📚❤️ The library is beautiful! Your husband did a wonderful job! 👏👏👏
Thanks! I want to just stare at it. 😂
@@mitzireadsandwrites I would too! 😆♥️
OMG - your husband is a dream! LOVE your beautiful library!
He's a keeper. ❤
Above the desk you could put a cork board to use as a bookish vision board or inspiration board or something :) or to book booktube ideas/stuff!
Oh, that's a great idea. Then I could switch it out easily, too! Thanks!

No and I should, especially since I'm from South Carolina!!
What a lovely library! Your husband is so thoughtful. Love your theology shelves. What is the name of your beautiful Dickens editions?
That edition was published by The Heritage Press- well made set!
Beautiful library.
I love your new library! And I like your bargain chair! You have a stellar husband.
Yes, he's awesome!
I love your library
Your library is beautiful! Your husband did an incredibly impressive job. I think I spied Savannah by Eugenia Price in the window set. I highly recommend that quartet. Added bonus, many of the places in the book are real and you can visit in Savannah - especially the house with the night ceiling.
I love Savannah, so yes!! I have it out to read sometime this summer.
Very nice. Will all add to your reading experience.
Beautiful shelves! And you have room to add books 😀
Yes!! 😂
Thanks for sharing your library. It is a charming space....just like you. I love the vintage planters you have your bookmarks displayed in.
A few years back my husband and I were traveling through Iowa and we went to see the bridges in Madison County.🤩
Oh, fun!!
@@mitzireadsandwrites By the way, I saw the picture of you and Miss Millie on your desk. 😍
@@debbifaust3106 she had to be included 🩷
Wonderland Creek is my favorite Lynn Austin book so far. Chasing Shadows is a very close second though.
I never hear anything about Wonderland Creek, so I'm happy to hear someone feels the same! I haven't read Chasing Shadows. I'm adding to my list right now- thanks!
Wow- beautiful library! I'd love to get hold of a copy of that collection of Dr Lloyd - Jones commentaries on Romans 😍
It's so good! Banner of Truth usually offers a great sale on the set around the end of the year. You can sign up for their email so you can catch their deals.
@@mitzireadsandwrites Thanks, I'll keep an eye out for that. I recently purchased All Things for Good by Thomas Watson ( Puritan Paperbacks) from Banner of Truth and it's a great read.
@@ishah4714 My son picked up a few Puritan Paperbacks at a conference recently. I'll see if he has that one!

Beautiful library! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
More space 🎉🎉🎉
That's awesome!!🎉❤ a great hubby!!
He is!! thanks so much!
I think you should add some Taylor Caldwell books. Classic historical fiction mostly. I think you would really enjoy her.
you had me at classic historical 😂two of my favorite words combined lol
