- Smart Women Read Between the Lines: A Readers’ Journal ($15, amazon.com) (CONFESSION: I think this is, like so many reader journals, unfortunately wide-ruled.)
- How to Read Literature Like a Professor: A Lively & Entertaining Guide to Reading Between the Lines by Thomas C. Foster ($12, amazon.com) (CONFESSION: Have not read this, but have heard many good things about it, and as a proud former part English major I come pre-packaged with enthusiasm.)
- Conceal: Invisible Bookshelf ($11, organize.com) (CONFESSION: I have posted about this before because it’s so cool! If you stack enough books, it looks like they are just floating on the wall.)
- Bookplates from Tiny Showcase by Ray Fenwick ($5, set of 10) (CONFESSION: My friend gave me these for my Bday. PERFECT GIFT!)
- Recycled Card Catalog Mini-Notebooks by Blue Valentine Press (set of 3, $7, Etsy)
- Shakespeare Hates Your Emo Poetry ($15, Threadless / TypeTees)
- Steven Colbert Natural Canvas Tote Bag ($12, Barnes & Noble) (CONFESSION: I think Tricia has this bag. It’s too funny because Colbert’s head looks just like all of the “writer head totes” they have. Also, as I noted in my Stereotyping Poets post, bookworms need tote bags.)
- Record Bookend by ICK Design ($15, Etsy)
- Personal Library Kit ($25, FredFlare) (CONFESSION: This makes me want to play library.)
- Book Lists: Oprah’s Book Club List, My Penguin’s Set Post (CONFESSION: These are not shown in the image above. Ten makes a much better list than nine.)

I am jealous of those bookplates!
I’d like to get the new Colbert Spider Man comic. To put in my geeky Colbert bag.
I just wanted to let you know that I ADORE your blog. Most of my blogging (and the blogs I read) are about kids, but you guys remind me of my love for other stuff. Like office supplies. Rock on!
I have a #10 for your list : Book Darts. They mark pages or lines without leaving any sticky residue or staining and they come in a neat retro tin.
LOVE #9… how helpful would that have been when I played library as a kid! (or now to make lending books more fun!). My library has moved electronic, and we don’t get to stamp the books anymore. Loss of satisfaction. Thanks for putting this on!
I am suprised you don’t have and bookmarks and book thongs here. I make a full line of each. Please check my site out and add me to your must have list !!!

I was actually trying to hunt down book thongs or book darts for the list! They are perhaps the most obvious things I should have added. And #1 Fan: YES I would have loved these for playing library!
