I
XOXO books and have an obsessive book buying and book photo-taking habit. I buy
books for reading, reference, and collage. Many of the books I have are vintage, and yet I inevitably find odd bits of
information still relevant today.
Books warm up a space and give clues about the people who live and work there. Whether they look tidy or seemingly out of control, on shelves, on chairs, under tables, or bedside, these wonderful stackers with their creamy pages and varied fonts and illustrations are probably (at least for today) my favorite home accessory.
