Do a search for “reading space” on Pinterest and you’ll get countless photos of chairs and benches and couches, libraries and dens and lofts, all styled to look like perfect reading spaces. Everyone has their own visions of what that perfect reading space might look like, myself included.
First, let’s take a look at my very first fantasy reading space.
Listen, the Beast’s multi-story library is amazing and all, but for reading I’ll take the cozy fireplace room. Can’t you just imagine how plush and soft that carpet must feel? Plus, you can snuggle up with a Beast who’s head over heels for you.
And for a real-life equivalent, how about something like this?
I can’t fathom a time where I would ever have something like this in my own house, but it sure would be lovely to visit, curl up on the couch with a blanket and a beverage, and read in front of the fire.
I also like a view when I read.
Can you imagine seeing that when you look up from your book? I love that the bookshelves accommodate the view too.
Living in a tiny house full of people, I definitely fantasize about a separate space all my own.
Kids, mommy’s going to lock the door so she can read without you now!
And maybe my ultimate fantasy?
You can refill your wine glass without even leaving your library. Sign me up!

I LOVE the little book house!! I need one of those in my backyard for sure!
I know…it just looks heavenly!
All of those look good, but I’d happily trade the wine for an ice cream freezer and chocolate!
No reason why you couldn’t! Just turn those wine fridges into freezers! 🙂
I love the small house idea and would love to have that sort of view! I do have a mountain view where I usually read and am always reading by the fire in the winter — seriously, the best! Great post!!
Oh yes to all of these! I would love a huge/beautiful reading space. Great post!
