Isn't this the prettiest little reading nook?

Aww, that IS! I would love to curl up there with a book and gaze out the window and daydream in between pages

I've always wanted a window box seat, one like this with bookshelves makes it a perfect reading nook, love it.

It looks very nice. I love all the pillows and the window. I don't particularly like the color of the wood. A hanging light might help read on a cloudy day.

Too many pillows but I love the built in bookshelves.

Yes, it absolutely is!  And all of my favorite colors too.

It is very nice, but I wouldn't use it as a reading nook.  I like to lean back and put my feet up when I read, so I'd need a supportive back to lean against and a thick, comfy cushion.  

 

I'd use it to display favorite collectibles.  I'd place a large statement piece or a spray of dried plants and flowers in a collectible vase instead of the cushion and pillows.  Collectible pieces on the shelves instead of books. 

 

I prefer dark wood, or would paint this in a different color, something colonial, maybe.

Very pretty!

 

However, I'd like to be an a nice comfy chair with my feet up facing this.
