A part of my books

Or should I say, a tiny part of all the books in the house...? We do have a lot of books, and my husband is responsible for buying most of them. I also like books, but as a little girl, I always borrowed most of the books I read, at the library. It's first as a grown up that I sometimes buy books. But most of the books in this shelf have been given to me by my sister. She translated them to Icelandic, and got a few copies for herself to keep. Those are beautiful "DIY" books, that teach various skills/projets, such as knitting, sewing, crocheting, painting, jewelry making etc.
